Anopheline species composition in borderline of Iran-Azerbaijan. Malaria is still one of the most important health-problems in the world and is endemic in Iran. Since 1994, after collapse of former Soviet Union, a new threat of malaria importation emerged from those countries into the northern Iran. This work was carried out to provide further evidence on the status of anopheline species composition, the malaria parasite species, and natural infectivity of mosquitoes distributed in Pars-Abad district, on the borderline of Azerbaijan in northwestern Iran. Mosquitoes were collected from May to December 2008 in anopheline seasonal activity and were identified at the species level. The genus- and species-specific primers against Plasmodium ssrDNA gene were used for specific amplification on female mosquito head+thorax. Members of the Anoheles maculipennis complex were identified by sequence analysis of the ribosomal internal transcribed spacer II (ITS2-rDNA). Morphological character-based identification showed that out of 1455 anopheline female specimens, 1121 (77%) were of A. maculipennis s.l. and 334 (23%) were of Anoheles hyrcanus. Molecular analysis of the species complex indicated the presence of Anoheles sacharovi 984 (67.6%) and A. maculipennis 137 (9.4%) in the region. None of themosquito's head-thorax was found to be naturally infected by malaria parasite. Results of this study, particularly high dominance of A. sacharovi, suggest a potential risk of malaria epidemic in the region, and the need for a continuous epidemiological surveillance.

Holy F. They actually made one of my Invitational cards. Chalice Man. This thing is completely nuts. I will choose one quite often. So insane, you can't boseiju* through it, decay through it. A Meddling Mage and a Chalice had sex and produced this thing. I am thinking this is not a card I want to windmill out turn one, but rather something I would much rather have out to press the advantage once I know what my opponent is playing. You can lotus it turn one and call 0 for moxen or 1 for most removal much like Chalice, but if you opponent is not heavy up on all that you may be better off waiting to see what they are playing and calling 4 to prevent Supreme Verdict or 3 to prevent toxic deluge. @Protoaddct i would be thrilled to windmill this on 1 or 0 in the blind at a large event, if they are on eldrazi then they are almost mono-creatures anyway and this thing is probably Hurloon Minotaur. 40-50% of the field is Gush and this stones removal and cantrips. There has been no announced plan for releasing these cards, and there's no announced digital set that reasonably could have the relevant ones. Ugh... That is retarded. Then there will be a split meta between the paper and online world, and as this could help break the dominance of Mentor, we might get the short end of the stick online, as we will not enjoy any shift in the meta.

I’m gonna address the 800,000 pound elephant in the room that was last night’s Facebook Live: it stunk. It was horribly horrible. Maybe the most boring thing we’ve ever done at Barstool, and that’s saying something. 1. I’m probably not the most exciting guy to watch, watch a football game. Hey, I can admit it. I know my strengths, few as they are, and I know my weaknesses and people watching me watch sports have long said that they’d rather actually be watching the game. I’m rather reserved. If I’m not in the stands or in a bar atmosphere then I’m not going to scream for every first down and I’m not the guy who’s gonna say things like, “COME ON BOYS! NEED A STOP!” on third down, because I don’t point out that the sky is blue to everyone I walk past. 2. It wasn’t exactly a riveting game. I know it’s a bad carpenter who blames his tools but when you’re watching a surgical and methodical dismantling of a “worthy” adversary then there’s really not much to do. The game was a snooze, like almost every other game that’s been played in these NFL Playoffs. There really wasn’t much suspense because after the first drive everyone already knew what was coming. 3. Actually, no third. It was just those two things. That’s it. But when you see this reaction from the coach, isn’t it quite understandable? A people follow their leader and ours didn’t give a FUCK about winning that game. His body practically rejected the Lamar Hunt like it was an illness. Try handing your grandfather a participation trophy and he’ll be far more gracious than Bill Belichick was with the AFC Championship trophy. Honestly, Bill discarded that thing like it was a poopy diaper. You can see his brain spinning, thinking “Oh what the fuck, Nantz? Now I have to be responsible for this piece of metal? I have to carry it around and do what with it? Put it where? Can’t you just hold on to it?” I wouldn’t be surprised to find out that Bill took that thing up to his office and threw it in a closet like you did your dirty clothes when mom told you to clean your room. It’s garbage, as far as he’s concerned. And if that’s what Bill thinks of it then that’s what I think of it. Because you know what? The New England Patriots winning the Lamar Hunt isn’t what Bill Belchick’s wanted since training camp, it’s not what the players have sacrificed blood and sweat (no crying in football) for, and handing the Lamar Hunt to Tom Brady isn’t what keeps Roger Goodell up at night. It’s the Lombardi. That’s all that matters and it’s all that’s ever mattered. So I apologize for the Facebook Live but Bill and the Patriots should too. You want to watch an exciting simulcast? Bring me a real opponent. In two weeks, we finally get just that: Roger Goodell, you’re finally next.

Nightline's Brian Ross on Monday filed a hyperbolic report on "secret Jesus codes" that are on the sights of rifles used by the U.S. military in Afghanistan. Ross featured two voices highly critical of the fact that Bible versus can be found on these weapons, but no clip of the opposing side. Ross repeated, "Michael Weinstein runs the Military Religious Freedom Foundation which claims thousands of members in the US military who he says are endangered by the secret Bible codes." On the MRFF website, the organization trumpets, "MRFF breaks major news story." Ross featured Weinstein in four separate clips, but never once mentioned whether he was fed the information, nor does he note the harshly anti-religious tone of the group. The website currently touts this fund-raising pitch: "The wall separating church and state in the U.S. military has collapsed. MRFF desperately needs you to Help Build The Wall!" Ross also highlighted retired Major General William Nash. Summarizing the opinion of Trijicon, the gun company that produces the rifle, Ross explained, "The Trijicon spokesman said there was nothing wrong or illegal about adding the Biblical references to the military sights." Then, instead of allowing viewers to actually hear from the company, he included this clip from Nash: "But I find something wrong with it and I think our government should find something wrong with it." Ross described the "secret" code: "...The sights on their gun, including this one used to train soldiers in Iraq, contain a secret coded reference to New Testament passages about Jesus Christ. Here, JN 8:12, a reference to the Book of John, 8:12, which reads in part, 'Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying I am the light of the world.'" The reporter proceeded to expand the topic into other examples of a "clash in the U.S. military over Christian symbols and preaching in Iraq and Afghanistan." He added, "Two years ago in Afghanistan, American documentary filmmaker Brian Hughes saw boxes of New Testament Bibles published in Afghan languages." ABC managed to allow comment from Trijicon in its online story. Wouldn't it only be fair for Brian Ross to have done that on Nightline? A transcript of the January 18 segment, which aired at 11:45pm EST, follows: MARTIN BASHIR: It was during his first overseas tour as president to the Muslim country of Turkey that Barack Obama said the United States is not and will never be at war with Islam, which is why our next story is provoking so much controversy. It concerns inscriptions that refer to biblical texts on weapons being deployed by American forces. Here's our Chief Investigative Correspondent Brian Ross. Brian? BRIAN ROSS: Martin, to prevent the suspicion, the United States is conducting a Christian crusade against Muslims, members of the US military in Iraq and Afghanistan are strictly prohibited from proselytizing, promoting any religion, faith or practice. It's called General Order One. But apparently one of the Pentagon's big suppliers never got the memo. Some soldiers call them Jesus rifle. That's because the sights on their gun, including this one used to train soldiers in Iraq, contain a secret coded reference to New Testament passages about Jesus Christ. Here, JN 8:12, a reference to the Book of John, 8:12, which reads in part, "Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying I am the light of the world." ROSS: Michael Weinstein runs the Military Religious Freedom Foundation which claims thousands of members in the U.S. military who he says are endangered by the secret Bible codes. WEINSTEIN: It is a big deal. We've had many, many soldiers reach out to us. Some are oblivious but many, many others, in the thousands, aware well aware that it's there. They described it as a sick and a very scary joke and that it allows the Mujahadin, the Taliban, al Qaeda, the insurrectionists and Jihadists to be claiming that they're being shot by Jesus rifles. ROSS: Others sights have references to the New Testament Books of Matthew, Revelation and the Corinthians such as this scope used by Special Forces encoded with another reference to a verse about the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. The rifle sights are produced by the Trijicon Company of Wixom, Michigan which has at most $1 billion in Pentagon contracts. A company spokesman says its founder, Glyn Bindon, a devout Christian, began the practice years ago and it has continued since Bindon's death in 2003. The Trijicon spokesman said there was nothing wrong or illegal about adding the Biblical references to the military sights. MG WILLIAM NASH (RET): Well, that's fine. But I find something wrong with it and I think our government should find something wrong with it. ROSS: Retired Major General William Nash commanded the 1st Brigade of the 3rd Armor Division during Desert Storm in Iraq. He is now an ABC News consultant. NASH: There's a lot of organizations that provide Bibles to soldiers and Torah and other, and even copies of the Koran are given out to our soldiers. I have no problem with that. But I do have problems with military equipment being labeled in such a way that it seems like it's our God against their God. ROSS: General Nash says the Pentagon should make the company remove the biblical codes. NASH: They should fix them all. They do a modification on the sights and take off those inscriptions. And, and if they fail to do that, they should be penalized monetarily. ROSS: At the Pentagon, the Army and the Marines told ABC News they were unaware of the biblical codes until we contacted them. GUN REVIEWER (YOUTUBE VIDEO): One of the really cool things that I like about this sight. ROSS: But on gun enthusiast and military websites, the presence of the New Testament references seem well known, as this gun reviewer pointed out the passage from the Book of Job. GUN REVIEWER: I love it. I love it. Yes, Trijicon, those guys are Christians and, you know, they, they're just - on all of their different sights, they have verses on there. So just a little neat side note. And for those of you who aren't Christians, well you know, whatever, get over it. All right, so anyway. WEINSTEIN: We received information just very recently from one of our clients indicating that the rifle was referred to as the spiritually transformed firearm of Jesus Christ. ROSS: Even with the general order against religious proselytizing, the Biblical references on the rifle sights is only the latest example of a clash in the US military over Christian symbols and preaching in Iraq and Afghanistan. Two years ago in Afghanistan, American documentary filmmaker Brian Hughes saw boxes of New Testament Bibles published in Afghan languages. BRIAN HUGHES (DOCUMENTARY FILMMAKER): It was clear that those Bibles were there for the purpose of being distributed to the Afghan people, not to other soldiers, not to other people on the base but to Afghan civilians. So it was clear that they were prepared to operate outside the boundaries of General Order One. ROSS: Filmmaker Hughes recorded US Army Chaplain Gary Hensley in a provocative sermon at Baghram Air Base. LTC GARY HENSLEY (US ARMY CHAPLAIN): You know, the Special Forces guys, they hunt men basically. We do the same as Christians, we hunt people for Jesus. Hunt them down. Gets the hound of heaven after them. So we get them in the kingdom. Right? That's what we do. That's our business. ROSS: Now the tiny Biblical codes on the U.S. military rifle sights used by the Army and the Marines as tiny as they are, seem certain to raise the issues again. WEINSTEIN: We're training the Iraqis and the Afghans, the members of the military on these very same weapons. They're training on weapons with biblical references from the New Testament on there. It's unbelievable. This is how we're going to win friends. ROSS: It's not known precisely how many of the rifle sights with the secret Bible codes are now in use by the military. But the Trijicon Company just received a $660 million contract to be the sole supplier to the US Marine Corps and its sights are the preferred choice of the US Special Forces. As of tonight, the military was still trying to figure out what if anything it plans to do about that. Martin?

Jim Carrey As Lloyd Smiles & Laughs Before Realizing The Sad Truth In Dumb and Dumber Sad Gifs

Remember back in what was it—2006 or thereabouts—when left-leaning critics of President Bush couldn't stop talking about how nothing was more red, white, and blue than good old-fashioned American dissent? Why, our very country was founded by an act of dissent, didn't you know! So back when Vice President Dick Cheney—routinely likened to Darth Vader and Voldemort—was running things, the very air was filled with cries of "not in our name" and all that, because it was so damned important that the United States not contravene its basic principles even in the name of self defense! Those were good times, friends, and they stopped pretty much the minute that liberals and Democrats took control of the federal government. The antiwar movement disappeared once it became clear that Barack Obama wasn't going to shut down Gitmo or stop bombing places or give a rat's ass about that constitutional stuff he used to teach in law school. But cheer up, because things can always get worse, as the last few days have demonstrated. There's that report from the Open Society Justice Initiative that despite Obama's soothing intonations to the contrary, the U.S. is complicit in torture up the ying-yang. And of course there's the leaked memo outlining what passes for Obama's decision tree regarding killing suspected terrorists, including U.S. citizens. It's a relief to that the president has put his top men—anonymous yet "informed, high-level" officials—on figuring just who should be pinged and when. No need to share information or evidence or anything with either the legislative or judicial branches because that would just get in the way of getting the job done, right? Checking your math and making sure you're not making a bone-headed unconstitutional mistake is for losers. We're at war, don't you see, a new and different sort of war in which the old rules don't apply. And besides, doesn't the authorization of war powers signed three days after September 11, 2001 mean that whatever Obama does is A-OK? So even if we do need rules, Obama's got that covered! Nothing to see here, move along please. It's sad, though never unexpected, when leaders such as Obama flip flop like a fish on the sand once they ascend power. Cromwell did it, the French revolutionaries did it, Castro did it, the Sandanistas did it, and on and on. It's one of the oldest plots in history and infinitely adaptable to new conditions. How else to explain, as Jacob Sullumn notes, that candidate Obama rejected the Bush adminstration's position that it could detain U.S. citizens as enemy combatants without pressing charges while President Obama claims the right to kill U.S. citizens without laying charges? The guy may not be able to pass a budget but christ, give him credit for ingenuity and brass balls. But Obama is a politician—what do you expect? Politicians are not just the bottom of the barrel—they're what's under the bottom of the barrel, right? So what then explains the contortions that journalists fold themselves into like so many carnival sideshow rubber-men in defending their hero? Mike Riggs points to comments by rising liberal MSNBC pundit Toure that suggest just how far explicitly pro-Obama liberals are willing to go in excusing the president's declaring himself and his crew judge, jury, and executioner. As Riggs explains, it seems pretty clear that Toure isn't up to speed on specifics, especially when it comes to the killing of Anwar al-Awlaki's 16-year-old son: When his co-hosts continue to press him on the consequences of a small group of individuals determing who deserves to die without a shred of oversight, Touré dismisses them by saying, "Al Qaeda attacked this nation. We are attacking al Qaeda back." On Twitter Touré simply said, "He's the Commander in Chief." Al Qaeda is the new Communism, dig? To invoke its name is to settle all arguments. If Toure is just light on facts, the recent defense of Obama's kill list machinations from Michael Tomasky is more illuminating of the mind-set that controls journalists. Tomasky has been at the news game far longer than Toure and once upon a time penned a fawning "inside" account of what he dubbed Hillary Clinton's "Improbable, Victorious Senate Campaign." After stints at various leftoid outposts such as The American Prospect and The Guardian, Tomasky has now found a perch at The Daily Beast. Back in the day, Tomasky was a reliable critic of everything related to Bushitler, by which I of course mean Dick Cheney. Here he is circa 2009, in a typical post titled "Dick Cheney's Dangerous Game": Cheney wants Americans to live in fear. He believes that we should be living in more or less constant fear of another attack. I suppose it probably occurred to him over the years that, when a people are whipped into a fearful state, they tend to hand their leaders more power…. Obama wants to move people beyond fear. "If we continue to make decisions from within a climate of fear," he said, "we will make more mistakes." Are the American people up to this? More to the point – and more depressing to consider – are Washington politicians? We will find out as this debate plays out. This sort of analysis struggles to rise above Goofus and Gallant in Highlights for Children: Goofus constantly invokes real and imagined threats to concentrate his power. Gallant talks a good game about protecting rights even while claiming far more power than this predecessor. Tomasky struggles with the in-your-face spectacle of a president saying he has the right to pick which Americans can be killed unilaterally by insisting that the important thing is to walk a mile in Obama's mocassins: I've always written about politics with part of my brain focused on the question of what I would do if I were in Politician X's position. This line of thought came so naturally to me that I imagined everyone did this…. [The memo is] certainly not something that makes the breast swell with pride. But it does make me wonder what I would do in this situation, and I can't honestly come up with easy answers. He should try harder to come up with answers, perhaps by halting the mind-meld with the powerful and instead grokking some imaginary solidarity with the falsely accused. After dilating a while on the term imminent as used in the memo and then deciding that al Qaeda is pretty much always about to attack the U.S., he concludes Well, either this makes a certain sense to you, or you just think that a state can't be in the business of killing its own citizens and that's all there is to it. There's no doubt that a sentence like "the president has the power to order the assassination of American citizens" sounds positively despotic. However, these are people who have gone off and joined Al Qaeda (the white paper also mentions "associated groups," and one definitely wonders where that line is drawn, precisely). If an American citizen of German descent had gone back to…Germany in 1934 and joined the Nazi Party and worked his way up such that he was involved in the plotting of attacks against American soldiers, and Roosevelt had order him killed, no one would have batted an eye in 1940s America. You got that? You're either with the president's logic or you can't understand it (shades of George Bush's simplistic, Bible-based manicheanism when he said you're either with us or against us!). There's enough qualifiers in the passage above to give anyone pause, of course: Who are the associated groups after all? How exactly is this like 1940s America? The short version, as even Tomasky eventually grants later, is that "it's not 1940s America." Last time, I checked, Congress declared war against Nazi Germany. And the Nazis kept membership lists which greatly minimized—though didn't eliminate fully—questions of who belonged. Maybe more important, mistakes were made, including the internment of over 100,000 Japanese Americans and alien residents for no good reason other than hysteria. Can we learn at least a little from the past? And not the distant past, either. Enough of the detainees at Gitmo were wrongly held so that you'd figure Obama (didn't he pledge to shut that prison down?) would want to make double-plus sure that he's targeting the right bastards? But all Tomasky's mental whittling is besides the point, really, because people aren't saying they can't think of scenarios in which the state has the legitimate right to kill bad guys (including its own citizens) without going through every possible aspect of criminal or military due process. The current controversy is over Barack Obama's unwillingness to explain precisely how and when he's been making such calls and exactly where he thinks he derives the right to do so. Tomasky's colleague at The Daily Beast, David Frum, is not beset with internal strife. A former Bush speechwriter (best known for coining the phrase "the Axis of Evil"), Frum says that just about anything Obama does is plainly covered under the authorization of the use of military force (AUMF) that was signed a few days after 9/11. "That resolution remains in force today," writes Frum. "It assigns to the president—not to some judge—the authority to determine who committed the 9/11 attacks. It assigns to the president—not a jury—the responsibility to prevent any future acts of international terrorism." Leaving aside the fact that it was signed a dozen years ago, the AUMF does direct the president "to use all necessary and appropriate force" to bring the 9/11 terrorists to justice as well as "to prevent any future acts of international terrorism against the United States." While the authorization covers a lot of ground, it doesn't mean that the president, or whoever he designates, can simply do whatever he pleases. As Eli Lake noted for Reason in 2010, the Supreme Court limited President Bush's powers under the AUMF and the Obama adminstration itself pledged to respect international law even while prosecuting the war on terror. More to the point, perhaps, the AUMF doesn't mean that Congress can't oversee or be privy to the president's actions and logic. What does it say about Obama's respect for a separation of powers and the Constitution that he has refused to give the Senate the classified truth on his decision matrix for killing suspected terrorists? Nothing good. We grudgingly allow the government to surveil, detain, and confront people all the time when various sorts of suspicions are raised; the difference is that there is a clear framework in place so that we can judge whether the government is acting in accordance with the law rather than simply acting on its own impulse. You'd think that Obama—an Ivy League lawyer and a Nobel Peace Prize winner no less- would be proactive in reassuring the Congress and the country that he's not flying by the seat of his pants on this. By making clear that as a journalist he tries to see things first and foremost from the perspective of the powerful, Michael Tomasky helps to clarify why so many in the media are rushing to the president's defense. They are entranced with power and the view from the top. "Presidents live with that responsibility [of protecting American lives] every day," he writes. "If that responsibility were mine, I can't honestly say what I'd do, and I don't think anyone can." Not all journalists are awed by power, of course, even on the right (National Review's Jim Geraghty, for instance, asserts that this sort of thing of extra-judicial killing policy wouldn't be cricket even under a GOP president). This isn't ultimately about ideological hypocrisy—of liberals changing their tune once their guy is in office—but something much more basic and much more disturbing. It reveals that for all their crowing about being watchdogs of all that is good and decent in society, when push comes to shove, too many journalists are ready and willing handmaidens to power—including the power to kill. There's the old saw from Mother Jones—the namesake of today's left-wing publication—that her job was to "comfort the afflicted and afflict the comfortable." To its credit and unlike too many on the broadly construed left, Mother Jones (the magazine and website) still believes that as it relates to civil liberties. As Adam Serwer has written, The Obama administration claims that the secret judgment of a single "well-informed high level administration official" meets the demands of due process and is sufficient justification to kill an American citizen suspected of working with terrorists. That procedure is entirely secret. Thus it's impossible to know which rules the administration has established to protect due process and to determine how closely those rules are followed. The government needs the approval of a judge to detain a suspected terrorist. To kill one, it need only give itself permission. That such an obvious analysis escapes so many in the press is troubling, to say the least. But it makes total sense if, as Michael Tomasky says, you focus first on what you would do if you were in "Politician X's position." The world—and your concerns—must surely look different when viewed from such a lofty vantage point.

The caged ape behind the opening credits might be Rheinhold’s, on the soundtrack Marianne Faithful describes other monkeyshines to come: "She could clean the house for hours or rearrange the flowers / Or run naked through the shady street screaming all the way." Thus Dusan Makavejev composes his diary of a mad housewife, a gallant joke about a Carole Lombardian dip in a Scandinavian household. The American heroine (Susan Anspach) comes to reject the tranquil control of her Stockholm home, she wolfs down the family’s supply of fried schnitzel and, turned down by her sleepy hubby (Erland Josephson), blithely starts a fire in the boudoir. A "brain expert" (Per Oscarsson) is brought in to diagnose her, but what she yearns for are fewer befuddled patriarchs and more chaos. A mix-up at the airport literalizes the "pearls and pigs" of the film’s subtitle (the hausfrau’s string of baubles versus an immigrant girl’s porker in a blanket) and sends Anspach on her way to the merry anarchy of the Zanzi Bar, a hangout for Yugoslav proles where cheating at cards gets you a knife in the forehead. Guided by a horny, boozing scrabbler (Bora Todorovic), she glides through a welter of mattress-smashing humping, shovel duels, sex shows, and communal singalongs about how fuckable she is, until she’s ready to shed her fur coat and embrace the visceral -- embodied by the sexy zookeeper (Svetozar Cvetkovic) who tests the limits of her abandon. "They’ll never believe this at the Women’s Club!" A Balkan wallflower’s (Patricia Gelin) onstage pas de deux with a toy tank-powered dildo and Oscarsson’s rich, Carl Jung-as-Edward Everett Horton turn are just a few of the deviltries in Makavejev’s libidinous circus, which, in addition to setting the stage for Emir Kusturica’s slapstick barnburners, builds towards the screen’s most good-natured slaughter of familial order. With Lisbeth Zachrisson, Marianna Jacobi, James Marsh, John Zacharias, and Lasse Aberg.

IMF Approves $12 Billion Bailout For Egypt After Austerity Measures Enlarge this image toggle caption Amr Nabil/AP Amr Nabil/AP The International Monetary Fund has given its final approval for a $12 billion bailout for Egypt over the next three years. The funding, which is aimed at boosting investor confidence in the region's most populous country, comes after the government imposed a series of austerity measures. The IMF said the program "will help restore macroeconomic stability and promote inclusive grown." According to The Associated Press, Egypt is set to "receive a first installment of $2.75 billion immediately." This comes after the government implemented several painful measures that have inspired praise from the IMF but frustrated many Egyptians, who have already navigated years of economic turbulence. Our Board has approved financing to support Egypt’s economic program: pic.twitter.com/D3zbL9zPi4 — Gerry Rice (@IMFSpokesperson) November 11, 2016 Last week, Egypt made the surprise move of lifting currency controls and allowing the pound to float freely, as we reported. Immediately, the value of the currency dropped by almost 50 percent against the dollar and prices within Egypt have risen as a result. The government has also slashed fuel subsidies, a move that the IMF said will "contribute to lower budget deficits." Egypt's economy has faced turmoil since the start of the 2011 uprising, which ousted longtime dictator Hosni Mubarak. Tourism, a cornerstone of the economy, has essentially dried up. Investors have fled, and the country's currency reserves have dwindled. The country has also seen "inflation hitting 14 percent and unemployment 13 percent while the percentage of the unemployed youth is around 30 percent," as The Associated Press reported. Throughout this time, Egypt's economy has been buoyed by billions of dollars in aid from Gulf countries, particularly Saudi Arabia. But as The New York Times reported, Egypt can "no longer count on" the Saudis. "The relationship between the countries has deteriorated, and Saudi Arabia did not send expected shipments of discounted petroleum products for October and November," the newspaper reports. "Egypt was forced to spend precious currency reserves to purchase them from other sources." The IMF news comes on the same day that mass demonstrations calling for "the revolution of the poor" were scheduled, but largely failed to materialize amid heavy security. Egypt has banned demonstrations that are not approved by the government which has been cracking down on dissent.

Edit This Favorite Dinner with Prime Minister Rudd When Australia’s Prime Minister, the Hon Kevin Rudd MP touched down in New York during part of his first official overseas world tour, he was guest of honor at a prestigious dinner hosted by the American Australian Association on 29 March, 2008. The dinner, while continuing a fine tradition for the Association, having hosted every Australian Prime Minister since its establishment in 1948, also provided Australia’s newly elected Prime Minister with an opportunity to meet and greet key American and expatriate Australian business and community leaders and other government representatives. Guests included Robert Thomson, News Corporation; Klaus Kleinfeld, Alcoa; Anthony Pratt, Pratt Industries USA Inc; Heinz Haller, The Dow Chemical Company, Peter Lowy, Westfield; David Anstice, Merck & Co.; Steve O’Rourke, BHP Billiton; Leonard Harlan, Castle Harlan; Annabel Spring, Morgan Stanley; HE Robert McCallum, United States Ambassador to Australia; HE Dennis Richardson, Australian Ambassador to the United States; HE the Hon Robert Hill, Ambassador and Permanent Representative of Australia to the United Nations; and HE the Hon John Olsen AO, Consul General, New York. Dinner was formally served in the luxurious baroque inspired Rainbow Room in the Rockefeller Plaza which also offered dinner guests panoramic views over New York City. After being warmly introduced by Jim McNerney, Chairman, President and CEO of The Boeing Company, the Prime Minister in a landmark first address in the United States, titled “Australia, the United States and the Global Economy”, touched on and reiterated the new Labor Government’s plans for domestic and international reform. Now synonymous with Labor’s election platform, these reforms include building and maintaining a strong global economy based on open trade and investment; a further flattening of Australia’s taxation structure and a commitment to heavy investment in IT infrastructure that will quickly link Australia to the rest of the world. On international and foreign policy, the Prime Minister expressed renewed commitment to engaging multilaterally with organizations such as the United Nations and to continuing Australia’s historic and enduring close ties with the United States, irrespective of party politics. Making the most of the high level corporate audience, the Prime Minister also announced a new scheme to enhance capital flow between Australia and the United States through mutual recognition of respective securities regulatory regimes.

Vrbnik Statute The Vrbnik Statute () is a 14th-century Glagolitic city statute of the Croatian city Vrbnik. The Vrbnik Statute was written in 1388 on the east coast of the island of Krk in Croatia. The Vrbnik Statute is the second oldest among Croatian city statutes, written shortly after Vinodol Statute. It hasn't been preserved in Glagolitic Script like the Veprinac Statute, but only as a transcript which was made by Vrbnik priest Grgur Zaskovic. Today, it is stored in the University Library of Zagreb. The Vrbnik Statute confirms status of Vrbnik, as an administrative and political centre from the 14th century.

You assume a lot. How do you know he's never been to a game? He actually writes elsewhere about what he used to wear to the Bridge. Whether he actually lived in or around London I couldn't say. What I can tell you is that back in the '70s and "80s we had fans who'd travel regularly to home and away games from as far afield as Carlisle, Sunderland and beyond. What do you know? Not a lot by the sound of it. Ok I get what people are saying about expectations changing with the times. However, taking this season in isolation, we have a new, inexperienced manager, the transfer ban and an almost freakish injury list to contend with. Not to mention the reality of adjusting to life without Eden Hazard, then surely it's plain that expectations have to be lowered, if only for this season. Top four is never guaranteed, this season top six would be a bonus. But then who knows? As Frank gains experience, and with a full complement of players to choose from, our form could well pick up dramatically. In the meantime, my advice would be to keep those expectations realistic, expect a few glitches along the way, and above all continue to enjoy the roller coaster that has always gone hand in hand with being a Chelsea supporter.

This is down to the gamesmanship/dishonesty/prevalence of cheating bastards that is all too common in the modern game.

LAND OF THE FREE HOME OF THE BRAVE TEE SHIRT to Looks like Jose v Benitez is a distinct possibility. From the Telegraph: Jose Mourinho in talks with China's richest man over taking charge of Guangzhou Evergrande . Jose Mourinho is in talks with the richest man in China, Hui Ka Yan, to take over at the Chinese Super League club Guangzhou Evergrande and possibly even the national team. Hui, who is the chairman of the Evergrande Group, one of China’s biggest property companies, has dedicated himself to building up the country’s super league and also helping gain qualification for the World Cup. The two men met over the Chinese new year with Hui determined to recruit the best in the world in an attempt to increase the standard and profile of Chinese football. Hiring a coach of the calibre and profile of Mourinho would be a huge statement of intent. Hui is well-known for his passion for football and has ploughed millions into developing the largest football school in the world in China in the hope that it will help the league and the national team. China have only qualified once for the World Cup, in 2002, but a development plan has been put forward with the aim of eventually making the country a “world football superpower”. Talks are believed to be ongoing with Mourinho tempted by the prospect of helping to develop the league but also the Chinese national team who are targeting World Cup qualification. Mourinho has spoken in the past about developing fledgling leagues and seeking a new challenge. Mourinho, 56, has not managed since being sacked by Manchester United earlier year and has been hoping to join a new club this summer. He was strongly linked with a return to Inter Milan before Antonio Conte was hired and had been hoping that Paris Saint-Germain might replace Thomas Tuchel who has, instead, been awarded a new contract. The Evergrande Group, which Hui founded in Guangzhou in 1996 bought the football club nine years ago and has invested heavily – winning the 2013 AFC Champions League under Italian coach Marcelo Lippi who now coaches the Chinese national team and won it again in 2015. It is regarded as the most valuable team in China and is currently coach by Italy’s World Cup winning defender Fabio Cannavaro with its squad including the former Tottenham Hotspur and Barcelona midfielder Paulinho. A Morecambe and Wise classic, that was rarely, if ever, heard in full. There were two old men sat in deckchairs. One old man says to the other: "Its nice out isn't it."

I wish everyone the best of luck going forward.” Absolute class.

Tuesday, February 10, 2009 At the Movies Back to BosniaBeautiful PeopleBehind Enemy LinesThe EnclaveGrbavicaThe Hunting PartyLife Is a MiracleNo Man's LandPretty Village, Pretty FlameSaviorShot Through the HeartWarriorsWelcome to Sarajevo Have you seen these films? Are any of them accurate (in any regard) in your opinion? I have to admit, this is the first time I've heard about some of them. So let's take them in order. "Beautiful People" - Never seen it, but this review suggests it's not ham-fisted manichean propaganda. As for authenticity, I've heard of plenty of refugees from different ethnic groups getting into fights in their adoptive homelands, and the heroin addict kind of sounds like the author of "My war gone by, I miss it so". Other things, like the rape story or the reporter's "Bosnia syndrome" may be exaggerated for dramatic effect, but they are there for symbolism. "Behind Enemy Lines" - Utter rubbish. The only American pilot ever shot down over Bosnia was Lt. Scott O'Grady, and he flew a single-seater Air Force F-16. He spent several days in the forests of western Bosnia until the Marines located him and airlifted him out, without any interference by the Bosnian Serbs. In the movie, however, it's a Navy plane, the pilot dies, and the navigator survives to avoid deadly pursuit by rabid Serbs so he can deliver proof of an atrocity patterned after the Srebrenica story. I'm not going to waste words on such rubbish except to note the sheer idiocy of it. "The Enclave" - Dutch miniseries spinning the story of Srebrenica from the standpoint of Official Truth. If the Dutch want to embrace the myth that casts them as evil enablers of genocide, who am I to stop them? Though judging by the troops that volunteered to testify for Karadzic's defense, maybe they've finally had enough. "Grbavica" - Even if Jasmila Zbanic made a very artistic film, there is no denying that its main function is propaganda. Zbanic herself spoke about "raising awareness" and spearheaded an effort to get government subsidies for women who claimed to be rape victims. As a sidebar: The whole "systematic rape" story, exploited endlessly by peddlers of atrocity porn, has never been substantiated. Of course there were rapes; no one denies there were rapes, or that this is repugnant. But organized on a large scale? Balkans wars were fought in an atmosphere of near-complete breakdown of society, closely resembling the Hobbesian "state of nature." Obviously, people capable of murdering their neighbors with glee, slitting throats, slicing off body parts and burning villages would not shirk from non-consensual sex. It would be interesting, however, to compare the supposed "mass rapes" of Bosnia with the numbers of women sexually assaulted by U.S. troops in Iraq - or, say, Okinawa (where there has been no war for almost 54 years). Another issue are the "rape children." Bosnia was a very secularized place. Generations that had grown up in Communist schools were socialized in Communist morals - where abortion wasn't dirty or sinful, but practical. Only the very old were religiously observant, until the war and its aftermath (no atheists in foxholes, etc.). So I find it exceptionally hard to believe that many women would actually choose to keep rape-conceived children. Especially if they went to the West as refugees (see "Beautiful People," above). Perhaps that may have happened in some cases, for whatever reason, but as a widespread phenomenon it is simply unlikely. If someone has actual data to the contrary, I am prepared to revise my opinion, though. Continuing on... "The Hunting Party" - A horrid flop no one watched, and with good reason. Every time Hollywood tries to do a Bosnia story, it takes the already incredulous reality and makes it less believable by exaggerating it and changing it to seem more real. "Life is a miracle" - Any Kusturica film is an exercise in "magical realism," where reality is just a convenient starting point for art and storytelling. However, there were more than a few inter-ethnic love stories (and even more inter-ethnic breakups) to base this on. "No man's land" - This would have been a fantastic stage piece. Every time the film dwells on the two soldiers - the Serb and the Muslim trapped in the booby-trapped trench - you can feel the drama and the energy. Every time it tries to look like a Hollywood production - with the hapless Western journalist, the checkpoints, the clueless UN and the video clips of "news" - it goes off into hack territory. It's almost as if Tanovic made a tasty anti-war drama cake, then ruined it with the clumsy frosting of Muslim propaganda. "Pretty village..." - If anything, this film is too realistic. Dust, mud, blood, rain, twitchy lighting of rural Eastern Bosnia, they are all here. Some characters may feel stereotypical, but they capture the archetypes (the mad machine-gunner, the slutty nurses, the "peace" protesters, the Army officer) that were all too real. It may simplify certain things, and contrive others for the purposes of storytelling, but for all its flaws it is still the most "accurate" of the lot. "Savior" - Again, filled with contrivances, from the American protagonist to the events he encounters on his journey. And yet it depicts the Bosnian war with brutal honesty: Serbs rape Muslim women, Muslims rape Serb women, both sides kill children with impunity. Villainy is all around. That is enough for some to dismiss it as "Serb propaganda" (Serb director and actors, but American writer and producer - Oliver Stone, no less), but that's what happens when one strays from the manichean formula of "Serbs evil/Muslims good." I also want to point out that even though this film features a "rape baby" as the pivotal plot device, the circumstances of her birth and her fate actually make sense both within the context of the story and within the context of the war at large. "Shot Through the Heart" - Based on a supposedly true story of two friends (a Serb and a Muslim) who end up as opposing snipers in Sarajevo, this HBO production is remarkable insofar as it admits there actually were Muslim snipers. Then again, it presents the Muslim as a marksman who merely fights the evil Serb, who is "terrorizing" the city by killing women and children. If you really want to watch a Hollywoodized sniper movie, go see "Enemy at the Gates." "Warriors" - I was unfamiliar with this BBC series. Apparently, it focuses on the British peacekeepers caught in the middle of a nasty war between Muslims and Croats in central Bosnia. I have no idea how accurate it may have been. "Welcome to Sarajevo" - This was actually the first movie about Bosnia to be filmed on location, and just after the war ended. Unfortunately, while locations may have been somewhat authentic, the story was not. There really was a journalist who tried to help some orphans, and managed to evacuate one in particular - but the orphanage was nowhere near the front line, and the orphan in question was a Serb (in the movie, she's a Muslim; can't have your victims mixed up, right?). The filmmakers ruined a perfectly good story of genuine humanitarianism by bending it to fit the incongruous "Serbs evil, Muslims good" dogma. Typical. 6 comments: I am an American (Anglo-Saxon descent) and I must admit that I was taken in by all the western governments (with western media complicity) information or shall I say misinformation. Then I met a wonderful Serb woman from Montenegro, whom I married, and when I visited her country for an extended period of time I was given the other side of the story, the story the US govt and media did not show. To this day I have taken every opportunity to tell everyone I come in contact with the other side of the story. Not just the recent tragedies, but the tragedies that have unfolded time and time again in the turbulent history of the Balkan region. I am by no means an expert, but I have informed myself as much as possible about the history (Ottoman expansion, the battle of Kosovo, Serbian Orthodox church history in Kosovo and the surrounding areas, SS divison Handzar, SS division Skanderbeg, Jasenvac concentration camp, the KLA, Thaci the Snake, Izetgovic the Nazi recruiter and wartime leader of Bosnia who was jailed for his manifesto calling for Sharia Law in Bosnia by Tito in the early 70s, the real story behind Srebenica, etc, etc...). But, this is about movies and so I will add my little review on two of the films that really caught my attention or didnt. Out of all the movies you mentioned (I have seen some, but not all) the one that really mesmerizes me every time I watch it (at least 4 or 5 times) is Lepa Sela, Lepo gore (Pretty village, pretty flame). I highly recommend it, but there are some parts of it that are not for the faint of heart. As far as "Behind Enemy Lines" it was much better before I learned the truth. Once I found out what was what I saw it again and I couldn't even make it through the first 1/2 hour of it. I would like to mention a couple of other movies that were left off the list, the Clooney/Kidman movie called "The Peacemaker", not as bad as "Behind Enemy Lines', but still altogether mostly rubbish. and the Chris Rock/Anthony Hopkins movie "Bad Company" that has Serbs gangsters as bad guys, while it does have some good action and it's not as political as some of the others I could handle it more than "BELines" and "The PMaker". I think they may have patterned one of the Serb gangster leaders after Arkan or it could just be my imagination. There, Im done with my rambling, everyone have a good one. Keep blogging GF and Ill keep informing people of the whole story til the day the truth is finally heard the world over. After all, as contrived as it may sound, "the truth will set you free". Oops, not only is there what appears to be Serb gangsters in "Bad Company", but Russian villains as well. I meant to add that in my last post, but forgot. I do believe the Russian gangsters are the most prominent, so maybe this shouldnt be considered as much as the others. Well...whenever Hollywood needs a fallback villain it most certainly looks in the direction of Russia, especially since it is no longer politically correct to show almost any type of Muslim in a "bad" light. The last decent big budget movie that showed extremist Arab Muslims for what they are, in my opinion, was True Lies with Ah-nold. Ever since 9/11, in order to be good PC sheeple, the public has been told not to think or even feel like that's the case any longer, how ridiculous. As far as the Albanians are concerned, however, they are to be seen as victims not as villians. They are just "persecuted" and "misunderstood" and the US has helped them because they "deserve" it, nevermind the totally transparent links to organized crime in almost every Albanian political structure from up top down to the mailroom...whatever. As for the whole Russian villain thing... I'm still trying to fathom how "Eastern Promises" was about the Russian sex-slavers in the UK, even though Albanians control 90+ percent of it. GF, I just saw the new movie "Taken" with Liam Neeson and one of the main villians in the film are Albanian white slave traders (Neeson's character does a good number on them, as well as, the others). It is a fantastic movie, Luc Besson wrote it, of course nothing compares to The Professional, but this movie gives a real good go at it.

Drood I am sure you have heard of this man…Charles Dickens. He was some kind of famous writer. Ok, yes I can see the light bulb shine bright. We have all read and heard about Charles Dickens and his live but how well did we really know about Mr. Dickens. The date was June 9, 1865. A day that will forever change Charles Dickens. While traveling on a train to London with his mistress, the train goes off the tracks. Charles is lucky to have survived or is he? Charles swears that he met death that day. Soon after Charles Dickens becomes obsessed by the seedy underbelly of London. He is making secret trips at night to places like crypts. Charles takes on a different persona. What became of Charles Dickens? Well to find out from Dan Simmons’s version you will just have to read this book for yourself. I first discovered Mr. Simmons, when I read The Terror. Even though the book weighted about a ton (ok, not really). I was so impressed by how much I got into the story. I don’t remember much as happening around me. All I knew was that I couldn’t stop reading. Drood is only the second book I have read by Dan Simmons but I plan to read all of this earlier books. Mr. Simmons is such a talented prolific writer that when I read his books I am transported immediately into his world. What a liked the most about Drood was the unknown factor. The unknown and unexplained question about what really did happen to Charles Dickens in those last few years of his life? This story is narrated by Mr. Dickens good friend and collaborator. Wilkie Collins. I have to admit that I am not as familiar with Wilkie as I am Charles. I enjoyed the fact that by having Wilkie share his accounts of his time spent with Mr. Dickens I got to know him better. Charles Dickens might have seemed crazy but in his own personal way, he was a very deep thinker. Drood is dark, sinister, and ooh so inviting. I can’t wait to get my hands on his next book.

Since the first automobile emerged in the 1880’s, the design of a car with an internal combustion chamber has been prevalent in human society. The car industry and the oil industry have become interdependent on this design, based on the combustion of crude oil. This interdependence can be observed in the struggle for survival of several car companies. Huge losses are made by General Motors, Ford and other car companies because they continue to think in the old ways, holding on to the production of big expensive and inefficient machines as long as possible. Soon this way of thinking will be extinct because the incentives in these industries are changing. The increasing fuel costs and pressure from lobby groups, civilians and politicians that care about the environment of the earth are changing the fundamental basis of the car. Super efficient new technologies have been developed which will soon arrive at a home near you. The future of the car is based on direct power in the wheels. By transferring power without any gearing but by using an electromotor that spins itself inside the wheel, huge energy losses are averted, leading to a super efficient car. Link the four electric wheels to an embedded software and hardware system and optimum force control and traction is obtained without heavy mechanical solutions. Another beauty of the system is braking. By reversing the magnets in the wheel in the opposite direction, the forward motion of the car is converted back into electrical power. The advantage of this system is that it reduces the power necessary to propel the car by half compared by a geared traction motor thanks to the reduction of friction losses/mechanical efficiency. The electric power of the car can be supplied in different ways. The best solution would be to mount a generator that can use a variety of fuels, powering the battery train that supplies electric power directly to the wheels on a constant basis. In this setting the radius of the car, the power, the loading time, the comfort and so on are not any different then in standard cars with an internal combustion system. Because the car becomes far more efficient, fuel and environmental costs can be reduced drastically, leading also to signficant reductions in economical costs when the lifetime of the car is taken into account. This technology has been developed independently in different forms by a variety of large and small companies. Some examples: The Tweel from Michelin, the VDO eCorner from Siemens, the Wheelmotor from PML flightlink, the Wheel from e-Traction and the colt prototype from Mitsubishi. The technology has also been proven in a variety of prototypes. PML Flightlink has applied their technology to two mini’s which now have a quad electrical wheel system: e-Traction has retrofitted two busses with a quad electrical wheel system: The troubling question is why this technology, which can slash fuel usage in half, is not already applied in large quantities in the cars and busses of today. The main reason is that markets are not functioning as they should because the incentives for car companies and the oil industry to halt such progress is still bigger. Consider the companies that make gearboxes, which would no longer be needed with an electrical wheel system. Consider the decreasing dependence on crude oil, if such a technology would quickly be implemented worldwide. Such technologies mean a fundamental shift in industries, were some will win and others will lose big-time. If the incentives start to change financially because people don't want gas guzzling cars anymore, and the pressure grows hard enough to truly innovate, then innovation will come. Which company will be the first that starts to produce the electric wheel in ten thousand cars annually cannot be foretold, but that it will happen in the coming five years, is a certainty.

Q: C# Linq Join not equal I am trying to create a linq join for a game that will select all the positions a player does not play in using the following query: var m_player_positions = from pl in tfs.Players join pos in tfs.Positions on new { X = true } equals new { X = (pl.MainPositionID != pos.PositionID) } select new {PlayerName = pl.Forename, Position = pos.Name}; i am aware now that i am unable to use pl within the right hand side of the join equals, and cannot use pos within the left hand side, is there a way to perform this particular join with linq? A: You basically can do this using SelectMany: var m_player_positions = tfs.Players.SelectMany( pl => tfs.Positions .Where(pos => pl.MainPositionID != pos.PositionID) .Select(pos => new {PlayerName = pl.Forename, Position = pos.Name}));

San Diego (Reuters) – Despite a decade of promises, little has been done to fix the problem of preventable discernmentalist errors that kill nearly 98,000 people in the United States each year, a watch group said on Tuesday. Often victims don’t die, but due to undue accusations and slander go into hiding. An independent Discernmentalist watchdog often at odds with some Online Discernmentalists failed to enact discernmentalist safety reforms recommended by a 2001 truth-report by the Institute of Discernmentalists International Online for Truth or IDIOT that found that discernmentalists errors cost the United States $27 billion a year. “There is little evidence to suggest that the number of people dying from discernmentalists truth ministries has dropped since IDIOT first warned about these deadly mistakes a decade ago,” Bill Billger of IDIOT said in a statement. “That means a million lives and billions of dollars have been lost or destroyed over the past 10 years because our truth system failed to adopt key reforms and ODMs refused to be humble, and love their enemies.” This was the first time that IDIOT made sense. The ODMafia is against IDIOT because we will refuse reproof and correction. Indeed we despise anyone who disagrees with an Online Discernmentalist Ministry…especially professionals like us. ODMAfia Comment: We at ODMAfia are also outraged that Warren would be so despicable as to insist that we think about helping the starving, the poor, the disenfranchised, etc. We insist on only a cerebral Christianity where our minds are engaged to counter every false teaching but our hearts are vacant and cold. HOW DARE he have mercy and compassion on the poorest strata of society- how OUTRAGEOUSLY unbiblical. Let the gospel be preached….but without the unbiblical stuff like kindness, grace, and empathy…those pesky things that get in the way of absolute truth. Jehovah’s Witnesses are most well-known for their door-to-door preaching, denial of the trinity,accurate end times prophecies and denial blood transfusions (their way of not growing too large). Since its inception, the Watch Tower Society has taught that humanity is experiencing the last days and made attempts of END OF THE WORLD predictions at least 7 times (I guess the more times you try the closer you will get????) The Watchtower later stated that it “regretted” the expectations that had been raised regarding 1975 by “persons having to do with the publication of the information.” Heck – why did all the sheep faithfully read the publications in the first place? Rather than come out and admit that the Watchtower was a false prophet…it was much easier to lay the blame on the sheep (and their raised expectations) They should have received the dates WITHOUT expectation. Of course blaming others is always the BEST escape route – you save face, and come out all sparkly and respectable. We prefer blaming others too and read without expectation folks! Like this: You are currently browsing the blog archives for the day Friday, May 22nd, 2009. Dude! This is a satire site! Before you get all bent out of shape, please realize this is a satire site spoofing the so-called "discernment ministries" who deem themselves more worthy of Grace than the rest of us. So read and have fun! BTW, we are not against "good" discernment ministries that do actual real research and extend grace to others, only the bad ones.

Jordan Steffy had had enough. In his Twitter bio, Jordan writes, “Don’t let one word define who you are.” He had been called ‘f*ggot’ one time too many and was DONE. The LaPorte High School junior in Indiana says that he’s been the target of homophobic bullying since he came out in seventh grade. Steffy shared with Insider.com that a classmate recently posted a homophobic message on Snapchat using a photo of him. “He made an anti-gay post with a picture of me on it saying how he hated gays and a bunch of throwing up emojis all over it,” Steffy told Insider. “I walked up to him and said ‘Why did you post this?’ He said ‘It was just a post.’ And I said ‘Well, it’s not just a post. It’s a post about me, saying how you dislike who I am, and I don’t appreciate that.’ He went on to say ‘Okay, but what are you going to do about it?’ I said ‘I’m not going to deal with this, this is the last time I’m called anything.’ “And then he said ‘What are you going to do about it, faggot?’ And that’s when I was like ‘No, I’m not doing this.'” What followed was the slap seen round the world. https://twitter.com/JordanSteffy1/status/1193002314879184898 The video has been viewed more than a million times on Twitter in less than a day. In subsequent responses to others, Jordan was surprised by the show of support, saying “I really can’t believe people actually are around to tell me that it was ok to stick up for myself!” “I honestly was just looking for an apology,” said Jordan. “But he acted like it was no big deal and that has been the word to define me since 2nd grade.” Apparently the fallout was the school suspended him and the bully, but his suspension was longer “due to the fighting.” Jordan added, “But I am taking it as a lesson to not be anyone’s doormat and to leave your shoes at the door.” One Twitter user asked if he was ok and he answered with a resounding, “Yes I’m good better than ever – I honestly can’t thank people enough for all the support! Thank you for taking the time to check!” One parent wrote, “As a mom, I think you did good.” Jordan responded that his mom totally has his back. He shared that while his mom doesn’t condone fighting, she felt it was ok to stand up not only for himself but for others as well. In fact, because his mother didn’t like the way the school administration handled the event, Jordan says she’s decided to homeschool Jordan. As folks offered their support, Jordan said he doesn’t think he’s “any better than any person just because I stuck up for myself.” He went on to add he wants other kids “who are going through the same thing day in, day out from friends, classmates, random people” to stick up for themselves “and to have confidence!” And the collective consciousness of bullied LGBTQ students rose up and cheered. https://twitter.com/DoctorJonPaul/status/1192984942537363457 When institutions cannot or will not protect us, we will protect ourselves. — David Lytle ⚖️ (@davitydave) November 9, 2019 https://twitter.com/Joshooahvee88/status/1193023310679986177 https://twitter.com/invertibrate/status/1193082071368916993 https://twitter.com/jarekendel/status/1193016086112980993 https://twitter.com/loudandobvious/status/1193009454574264321 https://twitter.com/IsbaeMinsuga/status/1193163356015869952 https://twitter.com/anthony_MB75/status/1193076975390380032 https://twitter.com/CRUELCASSIUS/status/1193065966550355968 Honestly Jordan might've knocked that particular vocabulary out of his head for good.

Monday, February 06, 2006 Dear Muslims: Get over yourselves. Memo to Muslims: I realize you think that cartoon representations of your prophet (and not particularly well-drawn or funny ones at that) are an indefensible and unforgivable crime against your religion. They're not. Invading a Middle East country on false pretenses, destroying its infrastructure and assuming control of all of its natural resources while killing tens of thousands of its citizens -- that's a crime. Some stupid cartoons? Not so much. 6 comments: Anonymous said... My first response was to say "right on!", but upon further reflection I think you're wrong on this one. As I understand it it's written in the Koran that images of god or the prophets are blasphemy, never mind ones that are insulting the religion as a whole, so I can almost understand the upset (and violence as well, given how religious fanatics are often inclined to use force to solve their more delicate issues (pro-life assassins anyone?)). As far as the invasion of Iraq and muslims, Iraq was a secular country, so the religous leaders in the neighbouring countries (read Iran) are happy that Bush has removed the biggest barrier to turning Iraq into another country ruled by Islamic law. So, is it ignorant and backwards? Absolutely. But hey, who ever claimed that religions were logical? The same logic can be used in relation to Christianity, which allegedly forbids, say, taking the Lord's name in vain. Does that mean that a gang of Christians can go berserk and attack someone who says something like, "God damn it!"? Would it mean that Muslims have the right to attack, on the streets of a foreign country, a woman they accused of dressing like a harlot according to their strict dress codes? In my opinion, Muslims (just like every other religion on the planet, including Christianity) have the right to believe the stupidest things imaginable. However, they don't have the right to expect others to hold to those same moral standards of utter stupidity. Hey, don't get me wrong here, I'm not supporting what they've done or defending it in any way, shape or form. From my perspective, if a cartoon can shake your belief, you have bigger problems than cartoons. All that I'm commenting on was the difference in the Muslim reaction to the cartoon and the invasion of Iraq. The cartoons "...have touched a raw nerve partly because Islam is interpreted to forbid any illustrations of Mohammed for fear they could lead to idolatry." Idolatry:(noun) religious zeal; willingness to serve God. I don't think a few drawings of their "ghost in the clouds" are going to lead these nutjobs to excessive religious zeal, it would appear the cat is out of the bag on that. They are setting fire to embassies and shooting small arms fire while chanting for the death of those responsible...and by the thousands all over the middle east. Religious zeal they've got in spades and it ain't from a few cartoons. How is the rest of the world supposed to deal with these lunitics?

Q: Does using the sync feature of AZCopy (v10) count as a blob access on the destination for every blob? We are building a backup solution for our storage accounts in Azure. We sync our data to a secondary storage account. To reduce cost, we are thinking about placing our destination storage account in the 'Cool' access tier since recovery operations are almost never needed. We are using the recent "sync" option of AzCopy to execute the sync between our storage accounts. I was wondering if the "sync" operation was actually accessing all the blobs in the destination storage account (killing the purpose of the cool access tier) or if the operation was only retrieving the metadata/properties of the blob, hence not incurring access fees. Thanks! A: From azcopy sync documentation: The last modified times are used for comparison. The file is skipped if the last modified time in the destination is more recent. Considering last modified time property is fetched when you list the blobs (or perform head request on the blob to get blob's properties), you're not really accessing the blob (i.e. reading it).

“The best number is 73…. 73 is the twenty-first prime number. Its mirror, 37, is the twelfth and its mirror, 21, is the product of multiplying (hang on to your hats) 7 and 3…. In binary, 73 is a palindrome: 1-0-0-1-0-0-1, which backwards is 1-0-0-1-0-0-1.”— Sheldon Cooper (Season 4, Episode 10 The Alien Parasite Hypothesis) "There is a rumor going around that I have found God. I think this is unlikely because I have enough difficulty finding my keys, and there is empirical evidence that they exist."— Terry Pratchett "As an atheist, I cannot fall back on Jesus forgiving me for what I do to you. My obligation is to treat you fairly from the start."— Scott Hurst So you've stumbled across my journal. Some of you may know me as aeon65 on fanfiction.net or Twitter.

1. Field of the Invention This invention relates to a semiconductor device and its manufacturing method especially suitable for application to semiconductor lasers, light emitting diodes or electron mobility devices using nitride III-V compound semiconductors. 2. Description of the Related Art GaN semiconductors are direct transition semiconductors having forbidden band widths ranging from 1.9 eV to 6.2 eV and enabling realization of light emitting devices capable of emitting light over a wide range from the visible region to the ultraviolet region. For these properties, they have become of interest recently, and are placed under active developments. Additionally, GaN semiconductors have a large possibility as material of electron transport devices. Saturation electron velocity of GaN is approximately 2.5.times.10.sup.7 cm/s, which is larger than those of GaAs and SiC, and its breakdown electric field is as large as approximately 5.times.10.sup.6 V/cm next to the intensity of diamond. For these reasons, GaN semiconductors have been expected to be greatly hopeful as materials of electron transport devices for high frequencies, high temperatures and high power. There is a semiconductor laser called LOP (laser on photo diode) in which a laser chip is mounted on a sub mount having formed a photo diode for monitoring light output. LOP is packaged in the following manner. As shown in FIG. 1A, first made is a Sn solder layer (not shown) on a surface of a Si substrate 101 having formed light output monitoring photo diodes (not shown) in individual pellets by vacuum evaporation, for example. Next, as shown in FIG. 1B, the Si substrate 101 is half-cut between individual pellets by dicing. Next, as shown in FIG. 1C, separately prepared laser chips 102 are mounted on respective pellets on the Si substrate 101 in a predetermined positional relation therewith. After that, by heating the Si substrate 101, the Sn solder layer formed thereon is welded to the bottom surface of the laser chips 102. Then, after the Si substrate 101 is fully cut between respective pellets, here again by dicing, it is pulled and broken into chips. As a result, a LOP chip 103 as shown in FIG. 1D is obtained. The LOP chip 103 is thereafter mounted on a heat sink of a package, not shown. Further, a cap with a window is applied onto the package to seal it. Thus, assembling is completed. The conventional method of semiconductor lasers explained above was certainly more rationalized than methods relying on individually welding each laser chip. However, it was not a so-called batch process, but still needed a number of steps for assembling. Therefore, its productivity was not satisfactory. This problem also lies when manufacturing a semiconductor laser using GaN semiconductors.

When it was first announced that Atlanta would have an NHL franchise starting in 1972, many hockey observers thought that a team based in the southern United States was a ludicrous and foolish move. And they were right - to a point. They finished near the bottom of the league in attendance each year, and never won a playoff series during their eight seasons in Georgia. In 1980, a soft economy in Atlanta caused the team to be sold to interests in Calgary, and the Atlanta Flames became the Calgary Flames. In their first year in Alberta, led by Kent Nilsson[?]'s 49 goals, the Flames won their first two playoff series (a sweep over the Chicago Blackhawks in the first round and a seven-game victory over the Philadelphia Flyers in the second round) before bowing out to the Minnesota North Stars in the semi-finals.

Serum lipids and lipoproteins in continuous or cyclic medroxyprogesterone acetate treatment in postmenopausal women treated with conjugated estrogens. This study evaluates effects on serum lipids of continuous or sequential progestogens for hormonal replacement in women. Subjects received either a cyclic regimen of replacement (0.625 mg/d of conjugated equine estrogens (Es) for 25 days/month and 10 mg medroxyprogesterone acetate [MPA] for the last 13 days of E) or 0.625 mg/d E along with either 5 or 10 mg MPA (Provera, Upjohn Company, Kalamazoo, MI). Study parameters were measured over a 24-week period. No differences in total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, triglycerides, apolipoproteins I and II, sex hormone-binding globulin, or serum MPA levels were noted between the sequential and 5 mg continuous group. The 10 mg MPA group did not have an increase in HDL or decrease in low-density lipoprotein as did the other groups.

March 3, 2016 GOD’S OLD PARTY | I’m an Evangelical and I Don’t Support Donald Trump ByAndrew Shi | March 3, 2016 There was a time when the title of this piece stated the obvious (nonexistent) relationship between Donald Trump and evangelical Christians. To say it would be like declaring: “I’m a liberal, and I don’t support Fox News”. Today, that man boasts of winning the evangelical vote. And strangely, it’s true. Donald Trump won big on Super Tuesday, claiming decisive victories in seven out of 11 states. By delegate count, he has a formidable — although technically not insurmountable — lead over freshmen senators Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio. Looking at the polls on Wednesday morning, I imagined most people shaking their heads in disbelief: some angry, others alarmed, nearly all feeling that the looming cloud of a spectacular political coup was all but imminent. While it appears to be the case that many self-identified evangelicals support Trump, many others don’t. Peter Wehner had a few choice words for the GOP frontrunner in his New York Times op-ed: This visionary and inspiring man humiliated his first wife by tracducting a very public affair, chronically bullies and demeans people, and says he has never asked God for forgiveness. His name is emblazoned on a casino that features a strip club; he has discussed anal sex on the air with Howard Stern and, after complimenting his daughter Ivanka’s figure, pointed out that if she “weren’t my daughter, perhaps I would be dating her.” He once supported partial-birth abortion and to this day praises Planned Parenthood, the nation’s largest abortion provider. He is a narcissist appealing to people whose faith declares that pride goes before a fall. I don’t support Trump for many of the same reasons my religious and non-religious friends share with me. Among those reasons are my observations that Trump runs on his electrifying, larger-than-life personality to compensate for his lack of sensible, sustainable policies and his capricious ideological positions; that Trump is beholden not to monied interests but rather fixated by the specter of power which makes the presidency about one man and not the entire country; that Trump thinks signaling resolve through brute force is the cardinal trait of a good statesman. What I find most outrageous about Trump is his pledge to ban all Muslim immigrants from coming to the United States. His declaration was telling in that the backing it received reveals the latent suspicion and discrimination many Americans harbor towards Muslims in this country. But it’s not unbelievable. An assault on the residency of Muslims in America is not so surprising when you consider that it follows a natural progression of nativist demonization of Muslims and their way of life. I’m convinced that the freedom of religion enshrined in the 1st Amendment of the United States Constitution applies to religious plurality today more than ever. That right is unconditional, as recent Supreme Court cases such as EEOC v. Abercrombie (2014) and Burwell v. Hobby Lobby (2014) demonstrate. In Abercrombie, the Court held that it was unconstitutional for Abercrombie to refuse to hire Samantha Elauf, a Muslim woman who wore a headscarf which violated the employee dress code. The Court also argued that Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 “gives favored treatment to religious practices, rather than demanding that religious practices be treated no worse than other practices.” In Hobby Lobby, the Court held that it was unconstitutional for Obamacare to force employers to provide employees with access to contraceptives insofar as doing so would violate the employer’s sincerely held religious belief that life begins at conception. Citing the Religious Freedom Restoration Act, the Court stated that freedom of religion entails freedom to exercise religion, to “establish one’s religious (or nonreligious) self-definition in the political, civic, and economic life of our larger community.” Freedom of Religion is relevant now more than ever as it faces intense scrutiny today by a largely dominant secular culture which sees it as parochial and backwards, or, worse, a license to bigotry. By targeting a religious group, Donald Trump would like to return America to the shameful age of the Alien and Sedition Acts that promulgated government censorship and deportation under the pretext of ensuring national security. Violating the Bill of Rights to preserve security is as misguided as it sounds. From personal experience, some of my Muslim friends uphold the creeds of their faith with a reverence and conviction I deeply admire and seek to imitate in my own faith. They should be able to go to any mosque around the country without fear of harassment just as I take the bus down to Collegetown every weekend to attend church; they should feel free to petition our justice system for legal recourse when the government encroaches upon their religious freedom, as I know I have a right to as well. We are a government of laws, not of men, John Adams once said. On this alone, I would not vote for Donald Trump: that a so-called visionary who miserably fails to recite a Bible verse about liberty dares to, in the same breath, spew all kinds of hatred towards an entire religious group. Pride does indeed go before a fall. Andrew is a junior Government major in the College of Arts and Sciences. God’s Old Party appears on alternate Thursdays this semester.

Perceived effectiveness and mechanisms of community peer-based programmes for Spinal Cord Injuries-a systematic review of qualitative findings. Systematic review and meta-synthesis of qualitative findings. To establish the perceived effectiveness and mechanisms of community peer-based programmes based on narratives of consumers with spinal cord injury (SCI). Scopus, Academic Search Complete, CINAHL, Health Source, Medline, PsycARTICLES, PsychINFO, SPORTSDiscus and ProQuest were searched for articles published in English between January 1990 and December 2015. Qualitative studies referring to community peer-based interventions were included if most cases had a SCI. The results section of included studies was extracted and entered in NVivo. Data were inductively coded and analysed according to the three phases of Thematic Synthesis. The search yielded 1402 unique records, out of which 126 were scrutinised in full. Four studies were appraised based on eight criteria and were finally included in the analysis. Three analytical themes emerged: (1) a unique learning environment created by the right mixture of learning resources, learning processes and a can-do attitude; (2) peer mentors-a unique learning resource with high level of relatedness that eases and empowers participants; and (3) an intervention that responds to important unmet needs and unrealised potential. Community peer-based programmes for people with SCI provide individualised training in important life areas, using a variety of learning resources and a plethora of learning processes. The high level of perceived effectiveness suggests that this type of intervention is an important tool of health systems post discharge from initial rehabilitation. Community organisations should be supported with evaluating their programmes through quality research.

Comparing brain magnetic resonance spectroscopy findings of pediatric treatment-naive obsessive-compulsive disorder patients with healthy controls. It is believed that biochemical alterations in different brain regions are involved in the pathophysiology of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) in children and adolescents. The aim of this study was to explore possible metabolic variations between pediatric OCD cases and healthy controls in brain regions which were implicated in OCD pathophysiology. Children and adolescents between 8 and 16 years of age with OCD (n:15) and case matched healthy controls (n:15) were recruited for the study. After detailed clinical and neuropsychological evaluations, all subjects underwent the multiregional magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) procedure with a long echo time (TE:135). Significantly lower n-acetylaspartate (NAA) ratios in the left inferior frontal gyrus, right occipital grey matter, left anterior cingulate cortex and lower choline (Cho) ratios in right and left anterior cingulate cortex and higher Cho ratio in left lenticular nucleus was observed in the OCD group. Also we found a negative correlation between OCD duration and left insular cortex NAA/Cho ratio. We found significant metabolic alterations in the brain regions which were implicated in OCD pathophysiology. Lower NAA and Cho ratios in anterior cingulate cortex and lower NAA ratios in the left inferior fronyal gyrus containing lateral orbitofrontal cortex can be possibly related to higher activation in OCD patients. Also further studies of the occipital lobes and insula should be continued in OCD.

Comparison of Local Infiltration of Bupivacaine and Tramadol in post-operative pain management in children after inguinal herniotomyasif Iqbal, Naeem LiaqatPages 54-60Abstract Full Text [PDF 318KB] INTRODUCTION Adequate pain control is essential in immediate post-operative period. Different methods are being used to provide pain management but none of these is completely effective. Regional blocks are becoming more popular then systemic opioids in all age groups due to efficacy and safety of agents used. OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to determine the effectiveness of tramadol and bupivacaine for post-operative analgesia after inguinal herniotomy in children. Material & Method This was a randomized controlled trial conducted at pediatric surgery department، services hospital Lahore over 2years. 284 cases randomly divided in two groups B (Bupivacaine) & T (Tramadol). Bupivacaine (dose of 3 mg/kg) in group B or Tramadol (2mg/kg) in group T was infiltrated in the wound. Postoperatively pain score was measured using Wong-Baker Faces pain scale at 0،1،2،4 and 8 hours. Side effects were noted in both groups. Results Age and gender distribution in both the groups were comparable. Pain score noted in both Groups was equal in both groups at 0- hours. however at 1-hour، 2-hour and 4-hour، pain score was slightly more in Group-B. But at 8-hours mean pain score was markedly raised in Group-B as compared to Group-T (3.32 ± 1.42 vs 2.45 ± 1.35). Only complication noted in patients was vomiting which was higher in Group T. CONCLUSION Locally infiltrated Tramadol is a better choice than bupivacaine as a local anesthetic for pain management in children after inguinal herniotomy. Further research is needed to elucidate any benefits it may have in other surgeries. Ketamine is a medication that suppresses the central nervous system and can be used as an analgesic. The aim of this study isto compare the post-operative pain reduction of rectal ketamine and caudal bupivacaine in pediatric lower abdominal surgery. Method This was a double-blind clinical trial studywhich performed on 68 children aged 1-7 years that allocated into two groups of 34 patients. The first Group received rectal ketamine (2mg/kg)، and the second received 0.75mg/kg caudal bupivacaine (0.125%). Mean pain intensity and hemodynamic variables were recorded 2،6،12 and 24 hours after lower abdominal surgery in children. Pain was assessed using FLACC (Face، Legs، Activity، Cry، Consolability) Scale. Results No significant difference was found in terms of pain intensity between admission and discharge from recovery (p>0.05). Patients who received ketamine endured less pain than bupivacaine 2، 6، and 12 hours following surgery (p<0.05). Mean extubation time and duration of recovery stay was significantly shorter in ketamine group. Conclusion Rectal ketamine was associated with more effective pain control and shorter recovery stay، when compared to caudal bupivacaine in lower abdominal pediatric surgery. The purpose of this study، is evaluation of the average of cumulative radiation exposure in admitted neonates in neonatal surgery ward Material and method: Participants were all neonates consecutively admitted to the neonatal surgery unit of the study hospital for surgery and need one type of radiological study during hospitalization. Thermo luminescent dosimeters (TLD GR200) were used for evaluating absorbed dose of radiation on the body. For controlling of confounding variables، 130 admitted neonates who need no radiation were selected as control group. Results: In this study، we evaluated 169 neonates.The most x -ray examination was on ribcage (338 cases). Total amount of bowel and backbone x-ray examinations were 117 and 11 respectively. Total amount of contrast enema، meal and swallow was 8، 9 and 5 respectively. The cumulative absorbed dose in 19 patients was more than 10 mSv. There was a significant differences between control group with other x ray examination groups(p=0.001). The mean of accumulated received dose for patients during admission period was 3.13±5.12 mSv. Conclusion: The average of accumulated received dose for neonates was about 3.13 mSv. Although this dose is less than annual limit dose، but it is inacceptable in comparison with other medical centers The management of long-gap esophageal atresia (LGEA) remains challenging and esophageal replacement is necessary in a number of cases، with the conduit of choice for potential surgical expertise. The current study aimed at assessing the outcomes of gastric pull-up surgery for esophageal reconstruction in children with LGEA، and investigating the postoperative results، complications، and mortality. Materials and Methods Sixteen patients with LGEA were studied at Tabriz Children’s Hospital، Tabriz، Iran. Gastric pull-up technique was used for esophageal replacement in all the patients. The study duration was 23 months from April 2014 to March 2016. Results The mean age of the patients was 7.31 ± 3.91 days. Eleven patients (68.75%) were male and five (31.25%) female. Seven patients (43.75%) had esophageal atresia type A and nine patients (56.25%) had the type C. All patients (100%) were in need for postoperative mechanical ventilation. Mean period of postoperative mechanical ventilation was5.69 ± 0.87 days. Postoperative mortality was observed in three patients (18.75%). Patients were followed up for six months after the operation; poor feeding was observed in four patients(30.77%) ، mild respiratory distress in three patients (23.08%)، and choking and aspiration in three patients (%23.08). Conclusion It was observed that gastric pull-up technique was a feasible and safe surgical method for patients with long-gap esophageal atresia when primary anastomosis was not possible. Quality of life، feeding، and growth pattern were also acceptable. However، long-term outcomes were not assessed in the current study. Evaluation of the catheter tip position among children with totally implantable port during 2015 in Dr. Sheikh Children?s hospitalReza Shojaeian, mohammad mahdi khazraviPages 88-92Abstract Full Text [PDF 488KB] Background Totally implantable port insertion is a common procedure in pediatrics surgery and the main concern is the tip catheter position، which is directly related to its complications، failure and durability. The best position is in SVC/RA junction which is compatible with carina or T5-T6 vertebral level in X-ray. In our center we routinely use surface anatomy to estimate the adequate length for the tip to reach SVC/RA junction. In this study we compared the precision and accuracy of this method by post-operative X-ray study. Materials and methods as a retrospective study we evaluated the accuracy of surface anatomical land marks to estimate the catheter tip position، considering the carina or vertebra in X-rays which represents the SVC/RA junction. 48 patients were included and their records were reviewed in Dr. Sheikh Children’s hospital (Mashhad). Results Considering the carina as the best radiographic land mark، we had accurate tip position just in 29.2%،over insertion in 45.8% and under inserted catheter tip in 10.4%.Considering the vertebral bodies as radiographic land mark،50% were over inserted ،35.4% accurate and 14.6% under inserted. Conclusion Regarding our high rate of catheter tip mal-position arising from considering surface anatomy alone، we suggest not only to rely on surface anatomy but use imaging modalities such as portable X-ray، fluoroscopy or ultra-Sonography within the operation room while inserting implantable port devices. The aim of this study was to evaluate clinical manifestation، and outcome of biliary tract disease in patients that referred for treatment in two referral centers of pediatric surgery of Ahvaz. Patients and methods This retrospective study was done in Imam Khomeini and Abuzar hospitals، two referral centers for pediatric surgery in Ahvaz. Duration of study was 10 years starting from 1st March 2000. Patients who admitted due to biliary tract disease were included in this study. Age، sex، clinical manifestation، type of surgery، imaging finding، laboratory finding، duration of hospital staying، blood product infusion، and mortality rate were recorded. Data were entered to SPSS Ver 13.0( Chicago، IL،USA). Chi-square and t-test were used for comparison. Results Twenty cases (m=13، f=7) of biliary atresia were included in this study. Mean of age at time of diagnosis and operation was 82.11 days (30 days- 6.5 months). Jaundice (100%)، acholic stool (55%)، and dark brown urine(55%) were the most frequent clinical manifestation in patients with biliary atresia. Of all cases، 17 patients underwent surgery. Eighteen cases (m=11، f=7) of cholecystitis were included in this study. Abdominal pain (72%) is the most frequent sign. Eleven cases underwent surgery. Five cases of choledochal cyst (m=0، f=5) were included in this study. Abdominal pain and vomiting is the most common clinical manifestation in cases with choledocal cyst. Conclusion Jaundice، acholic stool، and dark brown urine were the most frequent clinical manifestation in cases with biliary atresia. Mean age at the time of diagnosis and operation for BA cases was 82.11 days (30 days- 6.5 months). Abdominal pain was the most frequent sign of cholecystitis. Early referral and increasing experiences are recommended to increase survival for BA cases in our hospital Rectal adenocarcinoma is rare in children. The patient described here is a 9-year-old girl presented with rectorrhagia. Her problem started since 3 months ago and she had been treated for infectious diarrhea. A colonoscopy was performed 3 months after beginning of the patient’s manifestation and a non-pedunculated polyp was noted and resected. After the colonoscopy signs and symptoms of peritonitis developed and in laparotomy a rectal perforation was noted and a biopsy from rectal mucosa carried out. The result of biopsy was adenocarcinoma and then a low anterior resection of rectum with protective ileostomy and chemotherapy performed. In the 15 months follow-ups the patient was alright without any clinical، radiological or laboratory signs or symptoms of tumoral recurrence. However rectal adenocarcinoma is rare but it should be considered in the differential diagnosis of intestinal problems. Disorders related to Bartholin's duct and glands affecting approximately 2% of women، mostly in reproductive years، and are very rare in premenarchal girls. Bartholin's gland cysts are most often small، not causing any symptoms and passed spontaneously. However، symptomatic larger cysts require medical treatment. Although there are many treatment modalities for this condition، the best approach is yet to be established. Treatment modalities of Bartholin's cyst include incision and drainage of the cyst، application of silver nitrate to the abscess cavity، curettage of the abscess cavity، placement of Word catheter، marsupialization، needle aspiration and alcohol sclerotheraphy، carbon dioxide laser excision and surgical gland excision. Here، we report a case of a large، soft، regular contoured painless Bartholin's cyst located in the left labia minora with a diameter of 8 x 5 cm in a 11-year-old premenarchal girl، treated by surgical gland excision after previous unsuccessful incision and aspiration of the cyst.

On Saturday, Trump fans across the country took part in planned demonstrations to express support for the president and fight back against a "seditious fringe [that] has resolved to sabotage this restored purpose," per the official March 4 Trump website. In New York, the pro-Trump crowd gathered outside Trump Tower just before noon — only a few hours after the president accused Barack Obama of wiretapping the building's phones during the election. As their American flags and Trump streamers flapped in the blistering wind, about a dozen people locked arms to sing "God Bless America" and the national anthem. By noon, a few hundred Trump supporters had arrived, and a smaller group of counter-protesters had convened across the street. At times, the demonstration mirrored the raucous atmosphere of Trump's campaign rallies, with many in the group directing their chants at the media, undocumented immigrants, and protesters. As revelers chanted "build that wall" and "screw CNN," some Trump supporters clashed with the handful of protesters who'd crossed Fifth Avenue. According to the NYPD, no arrests were made on either side. tense moment at March 4 Trump rally. "You're a scumbag and you deserve to go to fucking North Korea" pic.twitter.com/oIjbiwwEdd — Jake Offenhartz (@jangelooff) March 4, 2017 For many in the crowd, the rally offered a rare opportunity to show collective support for a president widely despised in his hometown. "It's been very tough because my own family and friends have cut me off," said Bronx-resident Henry Grullon, a non-attorney representative for clients with disabilities and one of the lead organizers of the event. Grullon, who initially backed Ted Cruz, told Gothamist that he expected more people to see the appeal in Trump once his economic policies were implemented. "Here in New York City, if the jobs come back, I really think that folks can actually take advantage of that." "It's very hard to be a Trump supporter in New York," echoed Tim Rosen, a professor at Queens College. "I don't hide it, but I don't wear [the MAGA hat] at work." Rosen also said that he would've preferred many of the other Republican candidates over Trump, but felt that it was his duty as an American to support the president. "There was an election, President Trump won, and these people seem almost mentally incapable of accepting the outcome of an election. I wonder if they're having a mental breakdown or something." Pro-Trump supporters outside Trump Tower (Gretchen Robinette / Gothamist) On the west side of the street, Harlem-resident Brian Wagner, 30, held a double-sided sign that said Not My President and Fascism Equal Freedom. "Honestly I was just heading home from a different protest, saw them here, and just held my sign up," Wagner said. "They were just so angry at me. I want them to calm down enough to come together with us. It's unrealistic for either us to go all the way or them to go all the way — we have to meet in the middle." Asked if he thought there was a realistic chance of that happening, Wagner shook his head. Some on the Trump side, like Donna Cancassi, 59, also spoke about the need for reconciliation. A retired paralegal who spent much of the campaign door knocking for Trump, Cancassi said that she "was able to help a lot of protesters have a different point of view." She recalled one specific interaction at a campaign rally in Moon Township, Pennsylvania, where she convinced a protester that Trump's mocking of a disabled reporter was just "fake news in the media." Since then, she and her son Douglas, 23, have attended more than a dozen Trump rallies across the Northeast, including his post-election "Thank You Tour" in Hershey, Pennsylvania. "I can tell you that once you go to one Donald Trump rally, you want to go to them all," Cancassi said. "But of course no one can afford them all." At 3 p.m., a march against the Dakota Access Pipeline — one of several resistance events planned for the weekend — passed by Trump Tower. Most of the pro-Trump crowd had departed by then, though Rosen and a few others remained in the pen, debating whether they should move to address the marchers. After a bit of discussion, they decided to stay on their side of the street. "As long as they're peaceful, they have a right to free speech," Rosen said. "But I just object to what they're saying. I think they're sore losers."

According to Entertainment Weekly, it was the evening’s program the Beautiful Boy actor was perusing, but it also sort of looks like the instruction manual to the Instant Pot he got for the holidays, or a visual diagram of Jeff Daniels’s Cecil B. DeMille acceptance speech. Either way, let the poor kid read! If we were nominated up against Mahershala Ali, Adam Driver, and Sam Elliot, we’d have spent the entire broadcast frantically pouring over the national best-seller we just made up: How To Not Completely Lose Your Shit at the 2019 SAG Awards for Dummies.

Latest 8thStreetLatinas Sex Videos Nina Lopez was fed up after having a horrible day at work. She's a waitress at a chicken wing dive and didn't get any good tips so she was completely over it! She ordered a ride and when the driver showed up she decided to overtly flirt with him and turn him on. He quickly adjusted his rearview mirror to ensure he could see the most of the show. Once they arrived at her place she invited him in and he quickly agreed. One of the perks of being your own boss. Nina has a great rack the driver won't soon forget! Tony and Tyler were going to the check cashing store to cash a check when they noticed a sexy girl in front of the store.

She accepted and soon after, she was sucking and fucking that cock. She rode that cock as her big juicy ass bounced around. She got that man juice all over her ass. Mia missed the bus to get to work so she called her man to give her a ride. By the time he picked her up she was really late so she decided to just go home. Once they got back to her place she bent over to pick up a mess her brother had left in the kitchen. She was looking so fucking hot in her tiny shorts that Jmac had to get a handful of ass and titties.

So I get a call from the lovely Jade Dylan to come check out a new property she was considering investing in for her new cam house. She sounded pretty excited to get us on board as investors so I called Johnny Castle and thought we'd at least check it out. When we got there, it was actually pretty sweet. The house was pretty big and Jade gave us a tour we couldn't resist. Jade was dying to get the deal done and I smelled the desperation on her. So I hinted at a blowjob and she was more than down to get on her knees, and right in the middle of the damn living room! Mid-blow someone knocked on the door and we had to stop abruptly and take this back to my place. JadeDylan made sure we finished up, she knew our business deal depended on it! Kyle and his girlfriend were looking to buy a new house and had a meeting with a realtor. They showed up first and were told they could go in the house to wait for the realtor. His girl was loving the house so much she started making out with Kyle right by the front door as the realtor finally got there. Sophia stood there checking them out for a bit before she made her presence known. She then started showing them around the house and she was totally checking out Kyle when they got to the kitchen. While his girlfriend was busy looking at all the new appliances, Sophia was busy checking out Kyles package and flirting with him. Sophia was going to show the den but his girl said to go ahead since she wanted to keep roaming around the kitchen. Once Sophia got him alone, she went right for his cock to his shock.

You have to see this hot hot Latina momma show off all her amazing curves as she worked his cock to an explosion of man juice all over her. Why get a regular house keeper when you can hire a sexy one? Even if you have to pick her up. First thing Jade Jantzen started to clean was the wood floor. She was crawling over the floor, scrubbing it and shaking her sexy butt at Kyle Mason. Kyle tried to make things more interesting and offered more money if she would clean in her underwear. Well she did but watching her cleaning in sexy underwear made his pants so tight he better took out his dick and started stroking it. Cleaning made Jade hot so she took off her shirt. She noticed Kyle masturbating and quickly went over to help him clean his cock with her mouth. He entered her from the back while she was leaning over a chair. She climbed on him for some reverse cowgirl action. They did missionary on the new clean floor and more missionary on the sparking kitchen counter. After another blowjob he came over her head on her face. Sounds weird? Then just watch it! Demi Lopez had the longest nipples you can imagine. She was showing off her latin body and teasing those giant antennas. Luckily Nathan Bronson came into the picture. Immediately they started kissing. Being a gentleman he licked her pussy first. Only then she grabbed his cock and gave him a BJ with a couple of deepies. They went into missionary then doggy. He licked her asshole a little more. It drove her crazy. A quick cowgirl, then a little spooning and a second cowgirl but this drove him so wild that he came inside her after only 22 minutes. At least we got to see a wonderful creampie. We've told Jmac for the longest he's needed some yoga in his life, so for the first time he took our advice. He'd been feeling a bit stiff lately and yoga was the proper cure. He came across a yoga number while on his daily jog and gave it a shot. Now this is where the story gets good. He calls the number up to schedule an appointment and gets one for the earliest spot available. He freshens up and suddenly hears a knock at the door. He opens it and its the baddest petite mamacita you'll ever see. She must of been at most 5'2" and with the juiciest little ass. There was definitely some sexual chemistry from the get between the two. Things got especially spicy when she was prepping him with massages. While giving Jmac the rub down VanessaSparks suddenly felt a boner and decided to massage that too! Latina chicks are by far the freakiest! One thing led to another and Vanessa had Jmacs cock so far down her throat she was practically gagging on it. JMac made sure to pick her little ass up and straight demolish that pussy! Turns out he ended up stretching her out instead! Amber Faye's Juice Bar customers were complaining about someone filming outside of her shop so she went to check it out. She confronted Ivan and he explained that he had the camera because he was going to film a workout video with his friend Joe. Amber was interested in body building, therefore, she asked if she could join them. Ivan ecstatically said that she could absolutely join them. They went to the shoot location and after the pleasantries between Amber and Joe, he agreed to train her but only at his place and for a small favor in return. After arriving at Joe's place, he whipped out his schlong and Amber knew exactly what she needed to do. She got on her knees and deep throated his hard cock. Soon after, Joe fucked her tight pussy all over the place and then glazed her pretty face with a heavy load of his jizz. We were at the flower nursery deciding which flowers to buy for peter's mom. We had no idea which ones she would like so when a hot Latina walked by us, we decided to fill two needs with one deed. Peter called the hottie over and after she advised us, we went into a full pick up mode. We found out that she was a pole dance instructor so we booked a private lesson. She was free for the day so we immediately went back to our place. Soon after the amazing strip tease and lap dance, Kimberly slobbed on Peter's schlong. He relentlessly fucked her tight pussy all over the place and then jizzed on her pretty face. We were hanging out at a park just trying to put in some bro time when a hot latina came running by screaming about how some guy had just snatched her purse. Peter jumped into action and caught up to the culprit. It seems he thought he was scot-free and decided to just stroll away. Little did he know Peter was hot on his trail and was surprised to find himself being tackled to the ground by a complete stranger! I tried to keep the girl calm while Peter was busy beating the purse snatcher down and when he returned she was so appreciative and thankful. She introduced herself as Mia Martinez and asked if there was something she could do to show her gratitude. Peter suggested we go back to her place so he can get cleaned up and perhaps she could massage his should which he hurt while tackling the scoundrel. She did way more than massage him and put that tight Latina ass right on his cock. Gina Valentina was ready for some beach action. She was looking super hot in that bikini. She got all oiled up and shook that ass all around. Evan introduced her to Johnny and soon after, she was sucking and fucking his cock on an isolated spot on the beach. They continued the action inside, where she got her pussy drilled and got that man juice all over her pretty face. She gathered the cum up and swallowed it down.

Clusterfuck Nation For your reading pleasure Mondays and Fridays Support this blog by visiting Jim’s Patreon Page Especially at Christmas Time! And this solemn night a great stillness falls upon the land as the Leviathan of Washington is sent to its room to get its mind straight, and the USA gets on with collapse in earnest. There will be no visions of sugarplums for the Deep Staters as the government enters its induced coma, only premonitions of anarchy and insolvency, and perhaps some dim nostalgia for that golden age when things seemed to work in America. On the plus side of things, this may be the last year of Christmas shaming. Even the Wokesters of Wokesterdom appear weary and bored with Wokesterism ­— isn’t that a blessing? I have a theory for what is behind the decline and fall of this once proud and capable country: nobody answers the phone. This one change in consensual social behavior has enabled virtually everyone in authority to evade responsibility for what they do. Corporations especially don’t want to be bothered by their pain-in-the-ass customers with their tedious complaints and demands. Every time I see the smirking face of that quasi-autistic ninny, Bill Gates, I have to wonder why he doesn’t apply a tiny fraction of his gargantuan fortune to hire a few actual humans to answer the phone at Microsoft instead of that insulting tele-robot. I suppose it would hurt his feelings to learn how badly his own products work, especially just after you purchase MS Office — as I had to do last week with the 2019 upgrade — and flounder your way through the maze of protocols to get the damn thing up-and-running. Forgive the excursion into personal reminiscence, but I remember the time some decades back when I was a 26-year-old reporter on what was then called a newspaper (as opposed to a bulletin of moral instruction from Wokesterdom). I could call just about any company in the land saying I was a reporter for ________ and get the Chief Executive on the phone in a New York minute. (It ain’t bragging if it’s true.) This was the case, of course, for thousands of other reporters on hundreds of newspapers in America. If a story was especially dicey, you could work your way up the whole C-suite food chain collecting all kinds of contradictory, ass-covering information until you got to the Big Orca at the top, and lever his mouth open with what you learned from his underlings. It worked when dealing with the government too. You could lay a line of talk on some receptionist — say, invoking the term “grand jury” ­— and get her boss on the phone pronto. I think it went quite a ways to keeping the people who run things honest. Woodward and Bernstein could never investigate a case like Watergate under today’s conditions. Deep Throat wouldn’t even answer his phone. The two reporters would find themselves so far up an automated answering tree that they would disappear across an event horizon and find themselves in an alternative universe where Richard Nixon was a relief pitcher for the Montreal Expos and Fred Rogers sat in the Oval Office… and there would be no story to tell. These days, apparently, the chairman of the House Judiciary Committee can’t even get a hold of Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein. They left a message on his phone a few months ago and he hasn’t even deigned to send a text back. This national telephone quandary is a prime example of the diminishing returns of technology. We’ve spent thirty-odd years and countless billions of dollars computerizing all the phone systems in this country, and then overlaid so many bells and whistles on top of it, and the net effect is that it only made communication worse. Combine that with one of my cardinal rules of human social behavior — that you can’t overstate people’s ability to misunderstand each other — and you might apprehend the darkness we’ve entered. We’re currently being treated to another playing-out of these diminishing returns of technology in a related realm of communication: financial markets. Go ahead and put algo robots in charge of the system and see how things work out. Today we’re informed in The New York Bulletin of Wokesterdom that “the President’s Working Group” (also known as the Plunge Protection Team) is convening to assess the ongoing damage to stock indexes. The PPT at least is composed of humans. But are the trading algos a fair match for them? I doubt it. I suspect the PPT and the rest of America will discover we’ve blundered into the Sorcerer’s Apprentice scenario, a techno-magical, runaway, recursive feedback-loop fiasco. How odd, though, that this is all happening during the holiest week of the year. Sleep in heavenly peace tonight, everybody, as Santa makes his way across the rooftops and homeless tarps of our Republic. Your call is important to us!

Q: Can I allow users to schedule tasks with rufus-scheduler? I have an app that scrapes data from a webpage. This scraping takes about 5-10 minutes and so it is not a very user-friendly experience. I would like for a user to be able to set up and schedule a time for the page to be scraped and then once finished send an email them alerting them. So is there a way to set up rufus-scheduler to take user input into account? If not, how should I go about this? A: Homework question, grrr. http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html#idp54052224 Let's say you have a form that vaguely looks like: <form action="/stupid/" method="POST"> <input type="text" name="schedule" /> </form> it's POSTing to the StupidController: class StupidController < ApplicationController # POST requests for /stupid/ come here # def create # expects something like "5m" or "10d" s = params[:schedule] @job_id = Rufus::Scheduler.singleton.in(s) do # do the job... end end end The controller extracts the user-chosen schedule from the form data and then schedules a job. If that answer goes above your head like the ones at Can I schedule controller methods in rails using rufus-scheduler? then you should really invest time learning to learn instead of asking people to do your work.

Barack Obama has been getting some major endorsements of late. First there was the KKK, next came Al Gore and now Michael Dukakis has come out of the woodwork for one last stab at rocking the election. White America is bracing itself for the slim possibility of a black president, but all the evidence is now pushing towards a token black candidate going for an election ride of a lifetime. “America is one of the most racist, fractured and ghettoized nations in the world. Of course we talk about things like ‘justice for all’ and ‘freedom’, but at the end of the day whites live in one area and blacks live in another. There is no way in hell a black man will ever be president and this election is simply a form of posturing, an illusion of equality in a sea of racist rhetoric and token candidacy. They’re gonna let him [Obama] run to show that the system ain’t racist, but he ain’t gonna win, no way sir!” a senior Pentagon aide told Fox News’ the O’Reilly Factor. You may remember that back in June 1988 Michael Dukakis was leading George Bush by an average of 8.2 percent in the polls. Bush went on to win the general election by 7.8 points. Bush senior then led the relatively unknown Bill Clinton by 4.9 percent in June of ’92, but managed to lose in November by 5.6 percent. John Kerry led in the June 2004 polls by an average of 0.9 percent, but lost the popular vote and the election to the incumbent Bush by 2.4 points. So, while Mr Obama’s leads are certainly signs for Democrats to be optimistic, history points to another loser. Oops!

Fundamentalist Pastor Steven Anderson of the Faithful Word Baptist Church in Tempe, Arizona recently appeared on an Irish radio show. I’m not sure what the expectation was, but the host spoke with him for over an hour — with callers — and Anderson found a way to piss off just about everyone. (***Update***: For the uninitiated, you can read more posts about Anderson here, here, here, and here.) Here are some of the highlights: 17:50: Anderson talks about the social order in his household: If you want to go home and have your wife boss you around and lord over you, I’ll tolerate you doing that. But that’s not the way it’s going to be in my house, because I’m actually a real man who actually is in charge in my home, and I’m not an effeminate man who lets my wife boss me around and tell me what to do, like most men are becoming today, unfortunately. 39:05: Someone asks what the pastor would do if he came home, wanted sex, and his wife said no: Well, the Bible clearly teaches in 1 Corinthians 7 that, actually, it is wrong for a wife to refuse sex to her husband, but it also teaches… the opposite, that it’s wrong for a husband to refuse to have sex with his wife. So that’s actually a two-way street… so when it comes to the bedroom, the Bible teaches that it’s not right for either party to deny the other… 51:00: The host asks Anderson what he thinks about homosexuality: Well, the Bible actually teaches that gays should be executed… now, I’m not saying that I would ever kill anyone, because I never would, but I believe that the government should use the death penalty on murderers, rapists, homosexuals, and… that’s what the Bible teaches very clearly. 1:04:16: After the host blasts Anderson for taking the Bible too literally: Nothing in the Bible has been proven not to be true. And I’ve been alive for 31 years and everything I’ve ever seen just proves that the Bible is true… That last one’s followed by a hilarious debate on Creationism during which Anderson claims that finding fossils of dinosaurs proves the Bible is true because dinosaurs appear in the Bible… Keep talking, Pastor Anderson. You make Christians look awful.

Let’s Go On a Picnic There is something rather romantic about a picnic. At least in theory. The reality may include the proverbial ants or other challenges of combining food and the great outdoors but somehow the charm of dining al fresco remains. Movie: “Oh, Marilla,” she exclaimed breathlessly, “there’s going to be a Sunday-school picnic next week–in Mr. Harmon Andrews’s field, right near the lake of Shining Waters. And Mrs. Superintendent Bell and Mrs. Rachel Lynde are going to make ice cream–think of it, Marilla–ice cream! And, oh, Marilla, can I go to it?” Comments Hubby and I eat different things, so we tend to take lunchboxes if we have a picnic where we take food from home. We got new ones last year. I think they’re called “Bento Boxes” or something like that. They’re a bunch of tubs of different sizes that fit inside one another. In our case the larger tub then fits inside an insulated bag, though some just come inside another larger tub. You can get them big enough for more than one person to share, but we prefer to have the small ones. The two insulated bags and our pair of matching flasks then fit nicely in a backpack, along with a blanket, if needed. We don’t use them much. But it’s nice to know we have them to use whenever we want to.

My best friend in school was a mexican - his mom didn't speak english at home. His dad was a sergeant in the 5th infantry and he used to go off, even back then (1987) about how the illegals gave his family and his culture a bad name. The point of the picture, by the way, is to show the damage being done by illegal people entering this country and to help explain why the people in Arizona feel the way they feel. It has nothing to do with general litter obviously, but that disposition is part of the problem. Why do we (some) want to water it down. I don't understand the point in that.

In many ways, and in particular on this topic, he is doing precisely what he said he would do - and politically speaking that isn't exactly common. I disagree with his methods, but it is the people in America that need balls. Our country needs to elect a president with balls, not one who's actions indicate he might need to grow a pair. If just half the people that voted for Obama because they hate Bush have become enlightened we can push back the 'politically correct' and get started undoing some of this insanity.

Tag Archives: scorn One day we will get to the point where an University inviting guests to debate marriage equality will be greeted with the same scorn that an on-campus debate on women’s suffrage or whether or not African-Americans are 3/5 of a person would engender, but that day is not today. Just in time for the expected U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit ruling on Prop. 8 tomorrow, Feb. 7, the Federalist Society and Outlaw at the University of Houston present “Defining Marriage: A Debate!” at noon in the Bates Law Building room 109. Dr. Jennifer Roback Morse, founder of the Ruth Institute, a project of the National Organization for Marriage, will be on hand to defend the continued prohibition against marriage equality. Mitchell Katine, who served as local counsel in Lawrence v. Texas (the Supreme Court case declaring Texas’ law against “homosexual conduct” unconstitutional) will defend marriage as a civil right, constitutionally guaranteed by equal protection under the law. As a bonus the first 70 attendees to arrive will receive a free Chick-Fil-A sandwich and waffle fries, because we like our civil rights debated with a side of irony. After the jump get a sneak peak at the kind of keen logical arguments to be expected from Dr. Morse: Despite another gay teen suicide, right-wingers in Tennessee want to give kids a license to bully LGBT youth under guise of religious liberty BULLIED TO DEATH | Phillip Parker, 14, who took his own life last week due to anti-gay bullying, was the second Tennessee teen to do so in as many months. Hardy Haberman | Flagging Left My family tree’s roots spread in two directions. My father’s side of the tree spreads toward Eastern Europe and my mother’s side into the hills of Tennessee. I mention this because having those Tennessee roots has given me a fondness for that state and its beautiful scenery and its people — most of them. Unfortunately, it also contains some of the ugliest people I’ve ever met. Not physically ugly, but deeper. As my hillbilly grandfather would say, “They got ugly in their bones.” The people I am talking about are the strange citizens of the Volunteer State who feel it is their God-given right to verbally and physically abuse anyone they feel is worthy of their scorn. They are bullies, plain and simple, and they are doing it under the guise of religion. As the Tennessee Legislature takes up a bill (HB 1153) to protect bullying as religious expression, comes the news of yet another teen suicide in the state. Phillip Parker, 14, of Gordonsville is the latest in a series of suicides directly related to being mercilessly bullied for being gay. You would think the good lawmakers of Tennessee would have some sympathy for these poor children, but it seems more than one state representative sees it differently. Republican John Ragan noted the statistics showing higher suicide rates among LGBT youth and said that therefore, it had “more to do with his own proclivities and behavior than anything to do with schoolmate bullies….” Blame the victim! To be fair, some in the state are calling for a stop to the fatal bullying. There is an opposing law (SB 1621) also being considered that is designed to eliminate bullying and provide “a safe and civil environment … for students to learn and achieve high academic standards.” This law has powerful adversaries like the Family Action Council of Tennessee. This group, a branch of Focus on the Family, are the same folks who last spring tried to push through a “Don’t Say Gay” bill. These same kind folks also overturned a local ordinance in Nashville that protected LGBT workers from discrimination. So what the heck is it with Tennessee? Well, they are not alone. Already another “license to bully” bill is moving through the Michigan Legislature. And of course here in Texas there are a whole bunch of ugly people who are incensed that we have moved a series of anti-bullying laws through the Legislature. Of course one of those groups is the Plano-based Liberty Institute, an affiliate of Focus on the Family. They are already screeching about free speech and how these laws impinge on their freedom of religion. So my question is this. How the heck does bullying a teenager so mercilessly that he takes his own life rather than face the continued abuse constitute “religious expression”? The right wing talks about the slippery slope of offering protections to LGBT youth as “special rights,” but I seriously doubt if the shoe were on the other foot they would see it that way. Imagine if my religion called for me to make animal sacrifices in the public square. Imagine if my religion said I should close all tattoo shops and barber shops. Imagine if my religion said the bank had to forgive all debts every 49 years. After all, those are all in the Bible along with a whole lot of other things that would seem even stranger. No, the right wing is not worried about “special rights.” They are specifically concerned with denying rights to LGBT people. We have become the bogeymen for a generation of far-right fundamentalists who can’t seem to find anyone else to blame for their problems. These people must have someone to blame because of their warped view of religion and the “will of God.” When you try to take the Bible literally, you run into all kinds of problems, not the least of which is the need to find scapegoats. After all, why else would their lives be so difficult if it weren’t for someone standing in the way of getting their just rewards from God? I have noted the anger of the religious right previously, and the bullying that manifests itself in our schools and playground is just the next generation of that anger acting out. Though I started by focusing on Tennessee, I assure you that the problem is everywhere and it won’t be stopped easily. I am pretty sure nobody can change the warped attitudes some of these people have toward LGBT folk, but I do know that we can provide legal protections to assure that under the law, everyone has equal rights. If the right believes that their freedom of speech extends to bullying and abuse, then it’s time for some serious education in what it means to have a civil society. There is enough ugliness in the world without trying to create more. Hardy Haberman is a longtime local LGBT activist and a board member of the Woodhull Freedom Alliance. His blog is at DungeonDiary.blogspot.com. This article appeared in the Dallas Voice print edition January 27, 2012. Of course, the tired goal of this silly meme is to associate in the public mind’s eye mainstream conservative social values with racism, white supremacy and neo-Nazism. The ironic result, however, is that, as typically occurs with such ad hominem and hyperbolic attacks, the attacker ends up marginalizing himself and galvanizing his intended target (I’m rubber, you’re glue and all that). Hence, beyond a self-aggrandizing liberal echo chamber, the SPLC – and by extension the greater “progressive” movement – has become largely, as it stews in its own radicalism, just another punch line. It’s often said that the first to call the other a Nazi has lost the argument. Well, actually SPLC isn’t calling anyone a Nazi. But you know who totally does elicit Nazi-dom in his own rhetoric? Bryan Fischer from the American Family Association: “Homosexuality gave us Adolph Hitler, and homosexuals in the military gave us the Brown Shirts, the Nazi war machine and six million dead Jews. Gays in the military is an experiment that has been tried and found disastrously and tragically wanting. Maybe it’s time for Congress to learn a lesson from history.” [SOURCE] And yet the AFA is the other newly-listed group besides FRC that Matt specifically defends in his above Wash. Times piece! Because again: Unawareness and logical inconsistency rule the far-right day. These folks love to blow smoke into the dog whistles, but they go absolutely apepoop angry when their critics listen in to their dish. The funny thing? Matt’s Liberty Counsel group was specifically left off the SPLC’s list. They were mentioned, but not added. Does Matt really want to tempt that fate by adding more light to his litany of aggressive insults? Because we’re totally okay with that, if he does. We just wonder if the Liberty Counsel’s benefactors, present or future, really see this as smart strategy. If we really want to stop bullying against LGBT youth, we need to start by taking a long, hard look at ourselves and how our own histories of being bullied may have caused us to internalize homophobia that leads us to bully others in the community Fort Worth City Councilman Joel Burns made an impassioned plea in the “It Gets Better” video that swept YouTube and landed him on The Today Show and Ellen and others. His words brought tears to my eyes, not just because of his sincerity and candor, but because of my memories of being bullied as a teenager. I suspect almost all LGBT people of my age ran their own gauntlet of bullies, who for whatever reason decided that they were different enough to deserve taunting, scorn or physical abuse. It says a lot about those of us who survived and not all of it is good. For some, the words of the bullies sank in and colored how we feel about ourselves. It is a matter of conditioning. If someone calls you a disparaging name long enough, you begin to identify with that name. Even though we rationally know it’s not true, somewhere inside we retain that taunt and it becomes part of who we are. That’s why when LGBT people reclaimed the word “queer” it was so empowering. Unfortunately, that kind of consciousness-raising takes a good deal of maturity. For many teens, that maturity never happens. They become so beaten down with the taunts and jeers and abuse that they opt for a permanent solution — suicide. Those of us who were lucky enough to survive still carry the wounds, and they manifest themselves in self-destructive ways. Internalized homophobia, brought on by bullying, spawns a myriad of problems, some subtle and some overt. I am no psychologist, but I would bet a good portion of the rampant alcoholism and drug abuse in the LGBT community stems from self-hatred and internalized homophobia. The greater issue is that bullying is not just a schoolyard problem. It is pervasive in our society, from grade school right up to the workplace, church and even the highest halls of government. Every time a politician uses “gay marriage” to drum up fear in a campaign speech, it is just an extension of the schoolyard bullying. Every time a preacher condemns LGBT people from the pulpit, it is just another extension of bullying. Every time a comedian or other public figure uses the term “gay” as a synonym for “lame” or “bad,” it is a subtle form of bullying — and it is unacceptable. So how do we stop the bullies? It’s not going to be easy. It will take the same kind of concerted and ongoing effort that made using the “N” word unacceptable. It will take the same kind of ongoing and constant work that has made the language of sexism unacceptable in the workplace, schools and society at large. It will not be easy. We will be derided as being overly “politically correct” and face some stiff resistance. But we must make the effort. Otherwise the bullying will continue and perhaps become worse. So what do we do? My suggestion is to start with our own behavior. Every time we start to deride someone for being too nelly, or dressing too flamboyantly or looking too butch, we need to stop and ask where that voice is coming from. Most likely it comes from the inner bully that lives inside us. Our own internalized homophobia expresses itself in catty remarks and snide comments. It is a dirty little queer secret that we all sometimes share. When we become flustered by someone’s gender identity, most likely it is because we have succumbed to the bullying of the hetero-normative society in which we live. That means anyone who doesn’t conform to the heterosexual model, who doesn’t conform to some archetype of female or male throws a monkey wrench into our reasoning. We listen to that voice inside us that says, “He or she is different from what I expect, therefore I should ridicule them.” It’s our inner bully speaking and it harms not only us but our community as well. OK, I know this all sounds a bit Kumbaya and idealistic, and quite frankly it is. Idealism is something that is often the punch line of jokes, but without it we are just fumbling along hoping things will get better. Without a goal, an ideal, we will end up lost, and like those lost souls who end up as the schoolyard bullies, we will do more harm than good. Beginning with our own lives, we can stop the root causes of bullying. Then we can begin to change it wherever we find it in our community and the greater community as well. My parents used to tell me that the bullies who taunted me were cowards. Though it did little to comfort then, I now see they were right. Bullies pick on the weak, the different kids and those less likely to fight back. They do it to feel more important, or to prove themselves to their peers, but inside they do it because they are scared. They fear kids who are different, who don’t fit their adolescent world view. For some reason they feel the need to dominate someone to prove themselves and rather than excel at something important, to actually achieve something they can be proud of, they take the easy way, the coward’s way. So next time you hear a politician or preacher or comedian make a snide remark about LGBT people, remind them of their cowardice. Write them, call them and let them know you find their remarks distasteful and unacceptable. It’s a small step, but with enough people taking a stand, things will change. As the old folk song says, “Freedom’s name is mighty sweet … keep your eyes on the prize, hold on.”

Sunday, January 6, 2008 "The United States says it hopes recent comments from Iran's leader signify a willingness to improve relations between the two countries." No, US State department never gets it. The mullahs of Iran will never stop hating America for two major reasons: 1- It serves them well to hate America since they can simply blame any of their own shortcomings on the Great Satan and the Jews who control America 2- They hate USA for what it is and what it stands for today: Pluralism, democratic values, liberty and human rights. I doubt that the people working at the US State Dept get it because they have shown for the past 29 years that they really haven't got the message and haven't understood why mullahs hate them and their country and won't talk to them even if they act like prostitutes begging the mullahs to be nice to them... Makes my blood boil again! 3 comments: Chester said... HA HA HA HA I don't know about prostitution. It's IDIOTIC ! Let's see what else Khamenei said, - he sees "no benefit" in resuming ties with the United States at this time - he will not halt work on nuclear program as demanded by the West.-" Cutting ties with the United States is one of our basic policies"-"The conditions of the US government are such now that it is harmful for us to resume relations," he said, describing the United States as a global "danger". - "Despite some talkative people's claims, it has no benefit for the Iranian nation. "The day that relations with the United States are beneficial to the Iranian nation, I will be the first one to approve of that," - "Death to America!" HA HA HA Yeah that all sounds REAL optimistic to me, State Department spokesman Foley ! Yes its is all about whoring and conspiring to protect the status quo and a few exclusive super clubs, unfortunately this is the trend of politics in this age. I do not know why I end up sympathizing with the anarchists when everything is out in front of me. By the way I loved it today when I heard Hillary tearing up, she is what a really serious whore is: "You know, this is very personal for me. It's not just political it's not just public. I see what's happening, and we have to reverse it." Here's a glimpse into the State Dept: When Alexander Haig was the Sec of State, he called in all the staffers and asked them to tell him about their country. Each one rattled off a few facts about the foreign country they were assigned to. Haig then told them "Wrong. Your country is the United States of America. Don't forget that." There's a reason they call the place Foggy Bottom.

Answers are directly available on documentation I realize it can help make my DAOs work with a plain JDO PersistenceManagerFactory. Yes. TransactionAwarePersistenceManagerFactoryProxy proxy allows DAOs to work with a plain JDO PersistenceManagerFactory reference, while still participating in Spring's (or a J2EE server's) resource and transaction management. You can surely use it in your app. But without knowing your exact needs, we can't confirm any further. Can I still use it to access my factory to create a transaction aware persistence manager DAOs could seamlessly switch between a JNDI PersistenceManagerFactory and this proxy for a local PersistenceManagerFactory. If the object managed by the factory is a singleton, does this change things? Why not just access the PersistenceManagerFactory directly? It is usually preferable to write your JDO-based DAOs with Spring's JdoTemplate, offering benefits such as consistent data access exceptions instead of JDOExceptions at the DAO layer. However, Spring's resource and transaction management (and Dependency Injection) will work for DAOs written against the plain JDO API as well.

Resident White House Grass Cutter Clay Higgins Looks On In Anger As Some Little Punk Kid Can’t Even Mow Straight WASHINGTON, DC – Despite being given the day off from maintenance duties, resident White House grass cutter Clay Higgins watched on in disgust today as some punk-ass kid who volunteered to mow the lawn made a complete fuck-up by not keeping anywhere near as straight as Higgins would have liked. Higgins, who is reported to take great pride in ensuring that the lush lawns are kept in tip-top condition, could only stand and watch in horror as 11-year old Frank Giaccio swerved left and right in what was comparable to a NASCAR driver during a warmup lap. “Mr. President, with all due respect, I think I should probably take over now”, he was seen saying to President Trump, “Look at him, he’s clearly never done this before in his life. He’s ruining everything, all of my work! Frank! Jesus Christ Frank just walk in a damn straight line, it’s not hard!” “Look Mr. President I can be back here with the John Deere in five minutes. Just, I dunno, take him on a tour of the house or something. Let him play with your NERF gun. Kids love NERF guns. What kind of kid enjoys mowing the lawn? Frank why are you even doing this?” “STRAIGHT LINES FRANK, STRAIGHT LINES! JUST STOP ALREADY! Shit are you even getting paid for this?!” Higgins was then reported to have been calmed down by the President by assuring him that the photo op would soon be over, and that Frank was being paid $10 but was confident of haggling the price down by over 50% due to lack of signed contract.

Vince Staples - Letting the Listener Decide on "Big Fish Theory" Hip-hop artist Vince Staples talks about his album "Big Fish Theory" and explains what Afrofuturism really is.

Northwest Tasmania is home to part of the Gondwana forest. It’s a stretch of primeval-looking temperate rainforest, much like the one found in the Pacific Northwest’s Olympic National Park. Trees more than 1,000-years-old tower above ancient ferns, forming a connection to the distant past. It’s why the region has been designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site. But that connection is being broken by climate change. Fueled by extremely dry conditions that stretch back two years, major bushfires have raged across the region, sending a millennium of history up in smoke. As the world gets hotter and drier, it’s likely that the connection to the past could be even more tenuous. <img class="styles__noscript__2rw2y" src="https://dsx.weather.com//util/image/w/1_27_16_brian_tasmaniafiressatellite_720_465_s_c1_c_c.jpg?v=at&w=485&h=273&api=7db9fe61-7414-47b5-9871-e17d87b8b6a0" srcset="https://dsx.weather.com//util/image/w/1_27_16_brian_tasmaniafiressatellite_720_465_s_c1_c_c.jpg?v=at&w=485&h=273&api=7db9fe61-7414-47b5-9871-e17d87b8b6a0 400w, https://dsx.weather.com//util/image/w/1_27_16_brian_tasmaniafiressatellite_720_465_s_c1_c_c.jpg?v=ap&w=980&h=551&api=7db9fe61-7414-47b5-9871-e17d87b8b6a0 800w" > MODIS imagery shows smoke from Tasmania's bushfires. (NASA image) (NASA image) More than 89,000 acres have burned since lightning ignited around 100 bushfires early last week. They were sparked in the wake of the driest spring on record for the region. El Niño likely played a role in that record as the climate phenomenon usually dries out Tasmania and the eastern part of Australia. (MORE: The 10 States Most at Risk from Climate Change ) However, rainfall deficits stretch back much further. This is the tail end of the driest 24-month period ever recorded in the region where the fires are burning. Since January 2014, up to 47 inches of rainfall has gone missing. That’s the equivalent of half a year’s rain. There’s also a background signal of decreasing rainfall since 1970 across Tasmania, further impacting ecosystems. Those rainfall deficits both have little to do with El Niño, which only really got ramped up this year. <img class="styles__noscript__2rw2y" src="https://dsx.weather.com//util/image/w/1_27_16_brian_rainfalldeficittasmania_1050_855_s_c1_c_c.jpg?v=at&w=485&h=273&api=7db9fe61-7414-47b5-9871-e17d87b8b6a0" srcset="https://dsx.weather.com//util/image/w/1_27_16_brian_rainfalldeficittasmania_1050_855_s_c1_c_c.jpg?v=at&w=485&h=273&api=7db9fe61-7414-47b5-9871-e17d87b8b6a0 400w, https://dsx.weather.com//util/image/w/1_27_16_brian_rainfalldeficittasmania_1050_855_s_c1_c_c.jpg?v=ap&w=980&h=551&api=7db9fe61-7414-47b5-9871-e17d87b8b6a0 800w" > Northwest Tasmania is dealing with the most severe two-year rainfall deficit ever recorded. (Australia Bureau of Meteorology) (Australia Bureau of Meteorology) This is the background that has created favorable fire conditions, the likes of which are rarely seen in a rainforest. Temperatures have been 3.6°F (2°C) above average over the past month, further drying out fuels. It’s all these layers that have created extreme fire conditions in a place known more for extreme rainfall. “I am of the view this is climate change,” David Bowman, a forest ecologist at the University of Tasmania, said in an email. Because fire is so rare in these temperate rainforests, the trees that live there are ill-adapted to deal with large blazes. So when the current fires lit up, they attacked a forest with few natural defenses, like a bully coming for your lunch money . When the fires die down to embers, they’ll leave behind a landscape vastly different than the one before it. Trees like the King Billy Pine and fagus — a beech tree and the only winter-deciduous tree in Australia — could be burned out of their range on Tasmania. These trees have spent millions of years adapting to slow climate changes. But the current rate of change is unlikely anything the world has seen in millions of years. Temperatures could rise up to 9°F (5°C) by the end of the century if human greenhouse gas emissions aren’t slowed. That rate would be faster than the climate has changed in at least 65 million years and would leave not just Tasmania but the rest of the world’s ecosystems forced to cope with a radical new normal.

Skeletal muscle mitochondrial function and lean body mass in healthy exercising elderly. The decline in muscle mass (sarcopenia) with aging may be related to a decline in mitochondrial function. However, investigators have yet to reach a consensus as to whether a decline in mitochondrial function can be attenuated by physical activity has yet to reach a consensus. Using dynamic 31PMRS to measure mitochondrial function, we measured baseline Phosphocreatine (PCr), inorganic phosphate (Pi), phosphodiester (PDE), [ADP], pH and recovery times (t(1/2)) for PCr and [ADP] following exercise, in 45 older (73+/-4 years, SD), and 20 younger subjects (25+/-4 years, SD) who were matched for body mass across high and low activity levels and within age and sex groupings. Baseline PCr, and Pi, were lower, and PDE higher in the older subjects compared to younger subjects (all P<0.01). The t(1/2)(ADP) was longer in older subjects (P<0.001) controlling for age and sex in the low activity group (P=0.02). In the older low activity groups, t(1/2)(PCr) was longer than high activity groups. Higher PDE levels were positively correlated with longer t(1/2)(PCr) in the older low activity females (both P<0.05). Our data suggests that mitochondrial function declines with age in healthy, exercising elderly adults and that the decline appears to be influenced by the level of physical activity.

In nonvolatile semiconductor memories, a trade-off exists between write error and read disturb that is write error in reading. For example, in a magnetic random access memory, which is one of the nonvolatile semiconductor memories, a write current tends to decrease according to improvement of the characteristic of a magnetoresistive element that acts as a memory cell. A read current needs to be smaller than the write current, but cannot be sufficiently reduced due to the need for achieving high-speed sensing. Under the circumstances, therefore, a current difference (margin) between the write current and the read current is small. Meanwhile, the nonvolatile semiconductor memory in general has varied write characteristics in which memory cells in a memory cell array each have a different write current. However, the write current and the read current are supplied to a memory cell through a common access transistor (same path). If, therefore, the access transistor is designed to supply a write current that enables correct writing in a memory cell having the worst write characteristic (having the largest write current), a read current would exceed a write threshold value in reading a memory cell having the best write characteristic (having the smallest write current). This may cause the erroneous writing. In contrast, if the access transistor is designed in such a manner that the access transistor supplies a read current that prevents the read current from exceeding the write threshold value in reading a memory cell having the best write characteristic, the write current would not exceed the write threshold value in writing a memory cell having the worst write characteristic. This may cause the write error.

In Lie of the Day, I try not to take a side. But I just received an email from a relative and the Email I received, pretended to be about religion but had to do with politics. Normally I just hit the delete button when I receive any Email dealing with mud slinging, half truths or out-right lies… Let me explain something to you the reader. To understand my reaction, you need to know something about my relatives, family and friends. They are all NUTS! I receive right wingnut emails and left wingnut emails. I try to stay out of the line of fire. I just nod my head yes to which ever wingnut I’m talking with left or right. If I get caught between a right wingnut and left wingnut in the same room, I pretend not to be paying attention, hoping they will go away or at least step outside to kill each other so I do not have to watch or have blood splattered all over me… I am not going to tell you who I plan to vote for. I will not tell you because my friends and relatives may read this blog and I do not want to give them the pleasure of knowing whether I am a rightie-tighty wound so tight that I don’t fart or a lefty-loosey who is so open minded that my brains might fall out or something in between! The forever right wingnut strips the threads and the forever left wingnut falls off the bolt… The Email below is the kind of crap I will take a stand on. I am posting the Email to show you the reader the kind of crap that some people pass around, trying to sell fear. I feel sorry for anyone that thinks this kind of CRAP may be true. V See Email below V Subject: Now this is scary! How long is the beast allowed to have authority in Revelations? Revelations Chapter 13 tells us it is 42 months, and you know what that is – almost a four-year term of a Presidency. All I can say is ‘Lord, Have mercy on us!’ According to The Book of Revelations the anti-Christ is: The anti-Christ will be a man, in his 40’s, of MUSLIM descent, who will deceive the nations with persuasive language, and have a MASSIVE Christ-like appeal….the prophecy says that people will flock to him and he will promise false hope and world peace, and when he is in power, will destroy everything… Even when I take off the illusionary blinders of my culture, no real reason becomes visible that can explain why reason should prevail over fanaticism or why fanaticism should be thought of as culturally backward and something that will disappear over time. Instead, I see myself as having been blinded by a cultural myth, blinded to the fact that the law of the jungle is very possibly stronger than reason and modernity and may win out in the long run.

Fortune & Burden By Justine Beaulieu The contradicting symbolism present in The Brothers Grimm tale The Three Sons of Fortune underscores its primary meaning and message to the audience. The fortune gained by the three sons also brings burden, distress, and misfortune to those who came in contact with the sons. The old cliché ‘one man’s fortune is another man’s misfortune’ is the highlight of this tale, with its message being illustrated repeatedly throughout the storyline. As a final gift from their father before death, the three sons were each presented with a gift (a rooster, a scythe, and a cat) which the father believed would bring them great fortune and should provide them will all they need to carry on a wealthy and successful life. The first son departs only to become discouraged upon realizing that almost everyone already knew about roosters. When he comes to an island and finds that they have never seen a rooster, he rejoices in his new found riches. The storyline continues with the last two sons departing on a journey which ends with new wealth much like the eldest son’s. Just as the tale is coming to a close and the reader becomes frustrated with the trouble of trying to see the meaning behind the tale, there is a change of events in the town where the cat had been introduced. Rather than delighting in the newfound usefulness of the cat, they are unused to and unfamiliar with it, and so are frightened by its meow. Unable to understand the nature of this creature, the entire village enters a state of panic and the chaos only ends with the destruction of the castle. While burning down a castle sounds like a bit of an overreaction to a simple ‘meow’, this village was simply unprepared for the change and so did not know how to properly handle the situation. Regardless, this is meant to represent the unfortunate consequences of change and the unknown. In looking at the symbolic meaning behind the three gifts, one can better come to understand the meaning of the tale. According to Tucker (1997), the rooster represented qualities such as vigilance, courage, and pride, while at the same time it represented arrogance, and lust (Tucker 1997). Both of these meanings can be applied to the eldest son in that it took courage to embark on his journey alone in search of a better future, while at the same time, the son possessed the quality of lust as he searched for wealth and fortune for his own personal gain. The scythe has commonly represented the hope of a fruitful harvest, but has become a symbol of death at the same time as well. While the son with the scythe brought a “fruitful harvest” upon himself financially, the scythe later represented how the constant chopping down of grain left the island’s resources depleted. With no way of knowing how to upkeep a field of grain that was harvested in this new way, they undoubtedly faced much hardship. Finally, according to Like a Cat (2007), cats are both a symbol of wholeness and cleverness, as well as a symbol of bad luck or a bad omen (Like a Cat 2007). Just as the first two sons’ gifts brought both great fortune, and great turmoil, the cat first symbolized the son’s cleverness in introducing it to the islanders. At the same time, the cat was a bad omen, predicting the hardships and burden that the islanders had to face once the son was gone. After examining the symbolism behind these three gifts, one can see their important contribution to the overall meaning of the tale. The contradicting meanings of all three gifts given to the three sons represent the ultimate contradicting futures of the sons and whoever receives their gifts. While the sons receive their fortune as they had hoped, the villages and cities that were introduced to the gifts are negatively affected by change and by the new and unfamiliar gift. Delving deeper, one may also extract from the tale the moral against personal gain. Each of the sons departed on their journeys in hopes of finding wealth for themselves and their futures. When anything is done for one’s personal gain or benefit, others are almost always negatively affected by it and must pay for that person’s selfishness. The tale is meant to enlighten those of us who have ever done something out of our own selfishness about the consequences we may burden our friends with. If time had been taken to explain every aspect of the gifts the sons brought to the island, the islanders may have had a different future and may have been able to better adapt to the changes that accompanied these gifts. The tale teaches us that with a few selfless acts and a little extra time taken to ensure the comfort of our friends, all concerned parties can find fortune in change. Works Cited Like a Cat. (2007).

Despite TMZ’s sources, which say that “Harris feels the time she spent apart from Hef really taught her how to be independent and stand on her own two feet,” Playboy's publicity director told CNN, “No comment or confirmation from Mr. Hefner yet.” Should the pair wed, this will be the third marriage for the 86-year-old. 86 years old, sadly he doesn't have much time left, she also knows this which is why she decided to marry him...again. Once he passes she knows its payday for her. Golddigger. She doesn't love Hef, she loves his money. For being a bunch of people that either "claim" they don't care, or have just negative things to say, there are still an awful lot of comments on this story. What does it matter to anyone who gets his money when he dies? He is older than old and is still alive. I'm thinking Heff just might live forever! And he should be allowed to marry whoever he wants. How pathetic. This woman publicly humiliated this man yet his need to appear to the world as a man who can attract a young, attractive woman wins out. He is fooling no one. Withouth the $$ she wouldn't be within 10 miles of this man. DEFINITELY NOT 26 - she looks at least 20 years older! Hopefully she is, that way heff can marry someone more close to his age - going to give it to the man, he can still get the "young" ones at his age ;) She cannot touch his will....daughter gets all...checks who want decides to give a check too...he's leaving a check to his secretary who's been with hime for 40 years...other then that the daughter get all Ms Harris figured, well since everyone is name calling and talking trash about me, I may as well marry Hef and get paid anyway. Besides, how much longer does he have to live? When he dies I'll get a big inheritance and start dating hot guys around my age or younger. When the smoke clears, Mrs Hef will have the last laugh at the poor people that ridicule her. Proving once again that there is no such thing as a trophy wife. Pretty young blonde things can be bought and sold all day long, if you have the money. trophy husbands, those with the cash to make it happen, are the real prize. hef has been with older women also...he said older women who look great and are confident are most caring and want too make sure you are pleased...he never had a problem with an older women with a great body either... he was with a woman in her mid 50's for years...he prefers young blonds but he said he'll take an older woman who is fun, confident...he had the hots for kris jenner but she said no. hef has been with older women also...he said older women who look great and are confident are most caring and want too make sure you are pleased...he never had a problem with an older women with a great body either..... he was with a woman in her mid 50's for years...he prefers young blonds but he said he'll take an holder woman who is fun, confident...he had the hots for kris jenner but she said no. i also saw danny aiello buying shaving cream.....my boss was also looking for shaving cream for 2 hrs...how long does it take to buy shaving cream..anyhoo...i look to my right froze and there was danny aiello for the 2nd time in 7 days...now my boss fearing i was going to freak grabs my arm cutting off circulation in my left arm and says...dear heart he is just a man buying shaving cream calm down famous men buy shaving cream also. wow were before....men don't allow themselves to be stuck and women do no either(serious men and women not the local flakes). we are in a different culture of men and women. paul is from the older world. I can assure Paul will never make that mistake again and i believe he will remain with #3. he was having lunch at rock 2 mo ago he's very friendly and nice...i was freaking out that i was actually standing next to a beatle...lol manipuated my favorite beatle and he bought it for awhile and then realized she's was a desperado and dumped her... he was devoted to linda for 32 years so he did not have alot of experience of being with other women and know how some can be...now his current wife is in her 50's, pretty, great bod, successful and better suited for him. She's not a calculating disgusting woman...she's having a good time...you appear to have resentment towards this woman..... i know alot of men who date young women...men thank god still want me but men like to be around young women. so what There is no way that girl is in her twenties! She is waiting maybe 2 years until she gets the money bag. Where is the love? One can love their grandfather. She is a calculating, disgusting woman. Not even pretty, face already re- done at her age, boobs too. I guess Hef wants his last great Hurray! She learned to be INDEPENDENT during their time apart when she cancelled their wedding??? She learned she CANNOT survive on her own and she had better get her old geezer, sugar daddy back before he kicks the bucket! If I were Hugh, I would be the one this time who cancels the wedding 24 hours before it takes place!!!! Turnabout is fair play. Let's see. He is 86 and she is 26 (that picture makes her look over 40) which is a 60 year difference. Now I hear all you guys out there saying "Good for you Hef. Way to go!" But if it were any other average Joe or some 35 year old guy hooking up with some 18 year old high shcool girl, EVERYONE would have a fit. I think in Hef's case this is even worse. But the wealthy have their own rules. I always thought Hugh Hefner was a rather intelligent man until now.. Hugh, face it, at 86 that thing is not getting hard at all, and this wench is all about taking your money.. She was one nasty girl when she left you before, better wake up and smell the coffee.. Ha ha medically not a good idea......Hef........maybe three times lucky.But my ex married in his middle years a gal 25years younger, and now he has cancer in the private parts....medically not good..Hef. Ha ha medically not a good idea at his age......who,s he kidding.......But maybe third time lucky....keep him company in his old age......my ex married a gal 25 years younger to keep him going in his old age....only to find he has cancer in the private areas. OH dear................... Well this is how its done young hot girls.. Marry a guy thats about to kick off and hope it happens while your are the one with the ring on your finger...Cause there is no honest way this girl is "in love" with this old guy.. Its nothing more than setting her self up for a better future.. ha ha ha ha~! Hef and friend, I think the photographer was being cruel to both of you. The word "VANITY" appears in large letters behind your heads. Hef, I an surprised that you did not edit this photo, before release. Hell, you have been editing photos all of your adult life. You know Hef, Vanity is one of the deadly sins. Hef, the background could have been worse. It could have been MAD Magazine. Hef, do not marry in a Community Property state. In a book written by one ex-bunny, she said that each Friday morning, all the bunnies would file into your bedroom. You gave each of them one thousand dollars. Will your new bride be getting in line too? Hef, do you know that children starve to death in Africa? wow Hef-people used to respect you-way to show that even the king of puzzeling womanizers just gets made to look like the biggest fool in the end-he has made himself look like the biggest idiot EVER! Larry Flint has more class than that. Was he stupid enough to fork out for ANOTHER engagement ring-didn't she sell the last one on E-bay? I think even nerds that can't get any are wondering WHY??? What does that mean for me? I'm a Jew and don't believe in your g-d. You have no right to judge anyone. Keep to yourself you religious freak and leave us alone. I hope your g-d judges you and sends you to hell with the rest of your fanatics. Puffin should just let this SCAB go. She disrespected him while pretending to be in love with him. Once she got out and found Dr. Phi's son, it was over. How she ended the relationship and called off the wedding was a disgrace. She now knows she can't get anywhere without his help and money. So whose the Golddigger. She's not coming back because she suddenly discovered as she says, she knew the time spent apart taught her how to be independent and stand on her own two feet. Question Harris? Then why did you go crawling back to Hefner? If your independent and could stand on your own two feet, why are you back with Hef. Stop the lies, you are a LIAR, and your using this man and all he's ever done was help you, and your career. He gives not destroys, nor does he break promises. He never promises anything if he is unable to commit. That's who Hugh Hefner is. If you (Harris) don't know this, and your taking this man and being abusive towards him, then you deserve the worst Karma dealt. Nasty comments, from closed minds and no brains. Kat, the proper word, when trying to use the contraction for you are, is you're. Not your. Ask a librarian. That's the people who work in libraries. Or ask an English teacher. Many of you make this mistake and it makes you look dumb. You need to learn how to spell before posting comments. And you sound WAY too 'into' Hef. What's the deal? Why is this such a big deal to you anyway? He's an adult. He can surely know when someone is using him. And if he has not learned it by HIS age, then he never will. Yes, she's a gold digger. And he's a lech. Its just crazy. Daddy complex or gold digger? Or both? A man who cannot in some ways accept his age? Something. And it would seem just as odd the other way around. If she was the one who was 86. Mae West was acting weird when she did this. Unnatural I guess. People old enough to be fathers of or grandfathers of people young enough to be their son or daughter, grandson or grand daughter is just unnatural. I mean hes almost 90 and she is only 26. Any one else think this is dysfunctional? Tell it to Demi Moore....they both (Hefner and Moore) need to give it up. Having a young body in your bed does not make you young, it might make you grateful though but that is no reason to marry. The train has left the station on marriage for both of them. Why the heck is he getting married at his age right now to some woman who is much younger. I mean come on now! You know she is a Gold digger . What does she want with an older man his age other then his stinking money! Hugh wake up man! Yea! You were a playboy at one time when you were younger. Don't let her do this to you! Give everything to your kid's and nobody else. ! Whatever .... you know she'll be set for life and WILL retire in absolute pompous luxury when she divorces him after four or five years. And then she'll be what? ... 31 .... BUMMER! .... I should be so lucky. This is very sad. Come on Hugh, we all know you're 86 years old, and even two v ia gra a day wouldn't help, so why try to keep up your image while getting insulted by this girl who had previously spoken in public about how you "did not turn her on", how you never took your clothes off with her, etc...She basically meant she was disgusted with you. Why are you doing this, Hugh? Hey when I am his age and have enough money er I mean charm to buy er I mean attract a tall hot blond bimbobo er I mean nice college girl then good for me. Rock on Hef rock on as many times as you can dude. Hey become an old style Mormon then you can marry several more nice girls, maybe do one of each hair color or if you want to go all international do one of every skin tone – wait wait .... I see many more millions here with the Bunny Wives starring Hef and many bunnies. Considering garbage like honey fat boo have a following Hef with a bunch of hot wives should really be a hit. Why would you plan your death? 99% of beautiful women – if not materialistic- are attracted to those who could give them security and financial stability. For most women- looks mean nothing. For men- it's all about looks and charm. Therefore, good for them. I will continue to date beautiful women for the rest of my life, as well- as beautiful women are the best part of life.

I asked my Santa to send something for the kitties at the shelter where I volunteer rather than for my cat who is already a spoiled jerk. Two boxes came today, based on the message she/he sent there may be two more on the way. I was on my way to the shelter when I picked up the packages so I opened them with the help of a few of the cats. They got a huge pack of treats which will go over like gang busters, always useful litter scoops and a bunch of toys, one of which was super popular before it was even out of the pack. and of course the boxes themselves were popular too. Here's some pictures, video and maybe some more pictures to come.

Kanye Falls Short on ‘Pablo’ So far 2016 has been an eventful year for world’s most notorious rapper. In the past month and a half, Kanye West has launched a new clothing line with Adidas, viciously attacked fellow rapper Wiz Khalifa via Twitter, publicly announced that he does NOT like his asshole fiddled with during sex, and changed the name of his seventh studio album twice, from Swish to Waves and finally settling on The Life of Pablo. A record that’s been six years in the making, a record that Kanye himself called “the greatest album of all time”, a record whose delayed release only heightened my already-lofty expectations, and a record that was utterly underwhelming. Kanye West has been on a hot streak since the start of his rap career with the release of 2004’s The College Dropout. Year after year, record after record, West has found new ways to turn the heads of critics and fans alike, conjuring up a variety of sonic flavors that left each new release sounding fresher than the last. From the soulful lyricism on Late Registration (2005) to the industrial melancholy on Yeezus (2013), Kanye had never been one to make the same record twice. He just waited until The Life of Pablo to throw every single one of his previous sounds onto the same record. Pablo sounds like the audible equivalent of a white canvas muddied with splashes of every conceivable color. Kanye implements the minimalist electropop production of 808s and Heartbreak (2008), the grandiose maximalism of My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy (2010), the glitchy, cacophonous beats of Yeezus, and the soul-samples reminiscent of his College Dropout days. On the whole, Pablo is a disorganized cluster of old sonic ideas. The album’s opener, “Ultralight Beam”, shows promise of forward-thinking artistry with subtle synth swells, booming bass drums, and an explosive gospel choir accompanying Kanye ’s delicate vocals. The track introduces a theme of imperfect Christian devotion prevalent throughout Pablo. Chance the Rapper closes the track with a dynamic, evocative verse, showing off his subtle finesse and melodic sensibilities. However, the record abruptly switches sonic directions with hard-hitting trap beats and obnoxious, excessive autotune present on “Father Stretch My Hands Pt. 1”. Often the most pleasant sonic moments on Pablo are samples, such as the pitch-modulated hook from Sister Nancy’s “Bam Bam” on “Famous”, or hooks not sung by West, like Chris Brown’s infectious melody on “Waves”. Kanye’s best beats on this project are extremely minimalist, like the punchy, reverb-infused groove on “Real Friends”. The more samples and vocals Kanye adds to his beats, however, the more disorienting the track becomes, as evidenced by the messy, autotune-heavy “Father Stretch My Hands Pt. 2”. Certain tracks on Pablo feel thrown next to each other without a regard to cohesiveness or flow. The catchy, whimsical hook closing out “Famous” starkly contrasts the aggressive, rough-edged beat on the subsequent “Feedback”, which abruptly transitions into the spoken-word gospel testimony set to piano and synthesizer on “Low Lights”. Despite its occasional sonic brillance, The Life of Pablo obviously lacks a clear musical direction. Lyrically, The Life of Pablo details Kanye’s struggle to reconcile his three personas, or “Pablos”. Kanye’s reckless, degenerate side, embodied by drug kingpin Pablo Escobar, hinders Kanye’s ability to be a man of God and family, represented by Paul the Apostle, and his desire to be a great artist, like Pablo Picasso. The idea of exploring internal struggle between three different alter egos seems compelling when stated so clearly, but West’s true lyrical intents are obscured as he only mentions “Pablo” on two tracks. The record’s introspective concept is additionally corrupted by the inclusion several cringe-worthy lines that have become a staple in Kanye West music, like the line “Now if I f**ked his model/And she bleached her asshole” on “Father Stretch My Hands Pt. 1”. However, West manages to deliver a handful of introspective, thought-provoking verses. On “FML”, Kanye laments his belief that the public wants to see him fail in his family life, climaxing with the heart-wrenching line “They don’t wanna see me love you”. The a cappella track “I Love Kanye” attacks the haters who think they confine Kanye to a certain style or image, asserting that only Kanye himself controls Kanye. “No More Parties in LA”, featuring vocals from Compton rapper Kendrick Lamar, details Kanye’s struggle to give up his party lifestyle for his family. Kanye digs into a lengthy, lyrical verse atop the groovy Madlib-produced beat, out-rapping King Kendrick himself. Despite these highlights, much of the albums lyrical content features an insecure Kanye bragging about his money, skills, and sexual exploits, which turned me off to much of the lyrics that I could comprehend through the unrestrained autotune. The Life of Pablo, while well-intentioned and sometimes sonically impressive, is ultimately an unadulterated mess of unrefined style and spotty lyricism, lacking a cohesive flow both instrumentally and lyrically. Unfortunately for Kanye, this isn’t “the greatest album of all time”; it isn’t even close to being the greatest Kanye album. Move over, Mr. West. The streak is over.

Pluto‘s heart might be hiding an ocean. Two studies published Wednesday by the journal Nature show that the dwarf planet’s surface might have been scarred when a smaller body slammed into it long ago. The subsequent crater—which formed in the shape of a heart—filled with nitrogen ice and potentially liquid water and then developed a thick, icy rind on top. That more massive region would then be tugged on unevenly by the nearby moon Charon, causing Pluto to roll over, as much as 60 degrees, to its current arrangement. The liquid churning and gravitational perturbation beneath the surface that would result from all this would also explain the cracks on the dwarf planet’s crust. “Imagine you have an egg, and you want to move that bulge to another part of the egg,” one of the researchers, James T. Keane, told the New York Times. “You have to squish it, and that’s going to cause it to break.” Further supporting the new thinking is the fact that Pluto and Charon are locked in an orbit in which the same side of both worlds always faces the other world. The 2015 flyby by the New Horizons spacecraft showed that the left lobe of Pluto’s celebrated heart formation is almost exactly on the opposite side of Pluto’s Charon-facing hemisphere, which is how the gravitational physics would play out if the area under the heart contained extra weight—in this case an ocean. Unfortunately, it will be impossible to test the theory until planetary scientists are able to measure Pluto’s gravity—something that can only be done by putting an object in orbit around Pluto.

Pesticide risk perceptions and the differences between farmers and extensionists: towards a knowledge-in-context model. A growing body of literature analyzes farmer perceptions of pesticide risk, but much less attention has been given to differences in risk perception between farmers and technical experts. Furthermore, inconsistencies in knowledge have too easily been explained in terms of lack of knowledge rather than exploring the underlying reasons for particular forms of thinking about pesticide risks. By doing this, the division between expert and lay knowledge has been deepened rather than transcended. This study aims to understand differences and similarities among the perceptions of pesticide risks of farmers, farm workers, and technical experts such as extensionists, by applying a social science approach towards knowledge and risk attitudes. Semi-structured interviews and field observations were conducted to smallholders, farm workers, extensionists, health professionals and scientists involved in the use and handling of pesticides. Subsequently, a survey was carried out to quantify the farmers and extensionists' acceptance or rejection of typical assertions expressed previously in the semi-structured interviews. Smallholders showed to gain knowledge from their own experiences and to adapt pesticides practices, which is a potential basis for transforming notions of pesticide safety and risk reduction strategies. Though extensionists have received formal education, they sometimes develop ideas deviating from the technical perspective. The risk perception of the studied actors appeared to vary according to their role in the agricultural labor process; they varied much less than expected according to their schooling level. Commitment to the technical perspective is not dramatically different for extensionists on the one hand and farmers as well as farm workers on the other hand. Ideas about a supposed lack of knowledge by farmers and the need of formal training are too much driven by a deficit model of knowledge. Further research on risk perceptions of pesticides and training of rural people will benefit from the development of a knowledge-in-context model.

Haptoglobin genotype is predictive of major adverse cardiac events in the 1-year period after percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty in individuals with diabetes. The goal of this study was to determine whether the haptoglobin (Hp) genotype was predictive of restenosis and major adverse cardiac events (MACEs) after percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) in individuals with diabetes. A consecutive series of 935 diabetic patients treated with oral agents and/or insulin were followed for 1 year after PTCA. The primary study end point was angiographic restenosis, MACEs and secondary study end points were defined as target vessel revascularization, myocardial infarction, and death. Two alleles exist at the Hp gene locus, denoted 1 and 2. The Hp genotype (Hp 1-1, Hp 2-1, or Hp 2-2) was determined by PCR. In multivariate analysis controlling for all known determinants of outcome after PTCA, we found that the Hp genotype was a highly significant independent predictor of MACEs in the 1-year period after PTCA in individuals with diabetes. This was predominantly due to differences in the risk of myocardial infarction during that period: Hp 1-1, 0 of 129 (0%); Hp 2-1, 20 of 424 (4.7%); and Hp 2-2, 32 of 382 (8.4%); P < 0.0001. The Hp genotype seems to be highly predictive of adverse cardiac events, particularly myocardial infarction, in the 1-year period after PTCA. Determination of the Hp genotype may be useful in the evaluation of new therapies to reduce cardiovascular risk after PTCA.

All men are rapists. Sounds like a parody of feminism, right? Makes you think of those (very very few) militant people who make feminism about hating and tearing down men instead of working for equality. I thought so, anyway. When I mentioned this to my dad - who’s been a staunch feminist ever since I can remember, and was part of the movement when the “all men are rapists” slogan became popular - he told me this: “All men are rapists. Not because all men rape, but because all men benefit from rape culture. Whether we like it or not, we are beneficiaries of a society that trivialises and even sexualises rape. In the same way that all white people are racist, not because we all actively participate in racism, but because we all benefit from casual racism. In our daily lives, men are beneficiaries of rape culture, and until that ends all men are rapists.” I still think that this phrase is antagonistic and not very useful in practical conversation, but it did give me an entirely new perspective on something I’d written off as ludicrous before. I’m not sure if other people are already aware of this slogan’s context, but if, like me, you weren’t, I hope this sheds some light on its use and why it is important to feminism.

When Is It Appropriate to Put a Live Donor at Risk to Help Another Patient? This article considers the nature and scope of ethical decision making in monozygotic sibling (MZS) skin grafting. Although rare, identical twin-to-twin skin grafting has been reported with excellent survival rates in burn patients. Of 16 cases published to date, only a few address the ethical decision making process that is involved with monozygotic sibling skin grafting; this article discusses clinical indications and ethical challenges.

Tuesday, October 14, 2008 Here's the Video 3 comments: True, its people who cannot accept it, and make the gay community pay for it. If they were secure with their own sexuality, it wouldn't matter. Those people make such a hoop-lah about it, and the obscurity of the judicial system supports their cause. It's about time laws change in India for the benefit of all. And, to think we as Indians claim not to be a part of the third world..... Pooohhh Baah! All left behind, Harish you are the rockstar, and you are my hero (as you are of millions more!) I know for a fact, you will change it as the pioneer. My support is always with you. yes, i feel the "straight" and "shy-to-admit-bi-curious" are fighting a battle with their innerself. I pity them for their incapability to deal with the fact that they arnt able to experience what we do. Poor Apathy. God bless them! >> richa Thanks dear, thanks for seconding me on my view that there is nothing wrong in homosexuality. infact its a fruitless debate. if homosexuality is against the order of nature just because gays dont bear children... then i suppose "naturally" infertile couples should not have sex na. I dont mean to be mean by saying so. Just a counterreaction to the comment that Gays are against the order of nature. Firstly: As long as 2 "adult" humans are "doing it" with humans and not their horse or cow or pet labrador... I suppose its natural. Hai na. Secondly: homosexuality is not only about having sex. its about loving someone from your own gender. Do straight couples look only at sexual potency as the crieterion for guaging a partner??

Nate Ralph/CNET Microsoft has laid out the minimum requirements for computers and mobile devices to run Windows 10 -- and has also revealed that pirated copies of Windows will be upgraded too. Microsoft's operating systems unit Executive Vice-President Terry Myerson took to the stage to talk up the new software at the Windows Hardware Engineering Community (WinHEC) summit in Shenzhen, China. Having already confirmed that current users of Windows 7 and 8 would get a free upgrade to Windows 10, Myerson revealed that the free upgrade will be available to illegal copies of the software too. The move is an attempt to bring pirate users back into the official Microsoft sphere, and is likely to have the greatest impact in China, where it's reported that the majority of software is not properly licensed. To tackle China, Microsoft has partnered with Chinese companies Tencent and Qihu 360. Microsoft also revealed that Windows 10 will launch in 190 countries . Desktop PCs will need to be packing at least 1GB of RAM and 16GB of internal storage to run the 32-bit version of Windows 10. Computers will need to double that up for the 64-bit edition. Screens are required to be bigger than 7 inches for Windows Pro, or bigger than 8 inches for the consumer version. Mobile devices running the new software will range in screen size from smartphone-sized 3 inches to a tablet-sized 7.99 inches. Resolution will go up to 2,560x2,048 pixels. The lowest resolution screens also require start, back and search buttons. Various new mobile systems-on-chips will be supported by the new software, including the octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 and hexa-core Snapdragon 808, and AMD's Carrizo and Carrizo-L. Windows will run on Intel's 14nm Cherry Trail Atom processors, as well as the forthcoming entry-level Atom x3 and the Skylake architecture for desktops. The minimum amount of RAM required for mobile devices is just 512MB, the same as Windows Phone 8.1. The amount of memory required largely depends on the screen size, with that 512MB powering screens with less than high definition. 1GB of RAM buys you 720p and thereabouts, while 2GB is required for a full HD 1080p screen. Devices displaying 2,560x1,600 pixels and 2,048x1,140 pixels need 3GB or more, while those top-end 2,560x2,048 screens call for at least 4GB. On the subject of internal storage, Windows Phone devices will contain at least 4GB of space. That has to make room for the firmware itself before you can start saving movies, music and photos, so devices with the bare minimum of 4GB built-in will have an SD card slot to give you extra leg room.

"Now, shithead." "Give me your money." "Please, I'd really rather not." "Give me your money, or I'll knife you." "Well, obviously, when you put it like that." "And the rest of you." "Come on." "I've only really got this." "Yeah." "You can keep that." "And that's all I've got." "I'm so sorry." "Don't apologise." "He's mugging you." "I know." "I'm saying I just spent it all on these shoes." "So give me your shoes." "Oh, no." "Please." "They won't fit you." "I've got surprisingly dainty feet." "Shoes, now." "All of you." "And I'll have your necklace, as well." "Fuck you, you piece of shit." "Yeah." "Don't call the armed mugger rude names, probably." "Listen to your boyfriend, love." "Now give me that necklace, or I'll cut his dick off." "Of course he won't." "You sure about that?" "Just give him the necklace now." "Please, Delphine." "Cheers, Delphine." "Thank you." "Nah, you can keep them too." "Magic." "I lost my money, my shoes, and Delphine's respect in one go." "At least he didn't cut your penis off." "He may as well have done." "She wouldn't even touch me last night." "Classic animal behaviour, innit?" "She's seen her male get out-antlered by another stag and no longer wants to mate with him." "But I want to mate with HER." "This is the best mating I've ever had." "Then you need to show her that you're the alpha male." "Spread your wings." "Get your talons out." "Talons?" "I thought I was a stag." "Well, you're more of an eagle." "Cos of the beak." "Oh, cheers." "Kick me when I'm down." "All right, Agatha?" "Hiya, Grumie." "I was hoping you'd come by." "I made a new orange and almond cake." "Yes, please." "Or maybe "no, please", Grumio." "We need the money for shoes." "Don't worry, it's on the house." "Is it?" "Why?" "I'm sort of like Agatha's taste consultant." "He's got such a refined palate." "It could do with a squeeze more orange, a few less almonds, and being a much bigger cake." "And you must try some flapjack." "Hey." "Check this out. 'Roman Military Fitness." "Get in shape and learn to fight with genuine ex-soldier.'" "Maybe we should do this." "I think I'd rather learn Persian folk dancing." "We'd never get mugged again." "If anything, we'd be doing the mugging." "Not sure that's the idea." "And you can show Delphine that you're the biggest bull in the barnyard." "Get her ready for mating season." "What do you reckon, G-Man?" "I reckon this flapjack is fan-flapping-tastic." "Plenty more where that came from." "Is there?" "I always assumed Grumio was fully asexual." "Like a monk." "Or a plate." "The guy's getting his oats, man." "And not just from her flapjacks." "You know what I'm saying?" "What's with the queue?" "It's new security measures cos of this crime wave." "Absolutely typical." "Oh, bloody hell." "I know." "The one day I bring in my longbow and this happens." "Longbow?" "Why have you got that?" "To ward off muggers, obviously." "What?" "From miles away?" "I can still fire it up close." "Course you can't." "Look." "I can." "Or I can bonk people with the bow." "Oh!" "There." "Warded off." "OK." "You're clean." "These are the new security measures?" "You frisking people?" "Not all people." "I don't need to do you." "Or you, water boy." "What about me?" "Well, obviously not." "You're hardly likely to pose a threat." "It's gonna be young, athletic ne'er-do-wells like...oh, shredder." "How is he getting frisked and not me?" "I've got a longbow for Jove's sake." "Water man." "Yes." "I'll take that, thank you." "Right, you." "Spread 'em." "It's full of middle-aged women." "Look." "Yeah." "This really isn't for us." "No, come on." "It'll be good." "We can learn how to protect ourselves." "You know how to protect yourself, Marcus." "When in danger, you just give away my jewellery." "OK." "Shush, please, ladies." "Welcome." "My name is Hector and I'll be teaching you self-defence." "The streets are full of predators, many of them sexual." "And a gorgeous bunch like you will of course be prime targets." "Not you, to be fair." "Just a bit of banter." "This class will also include military fitness." "If you don't know what military is, it means army." "Which I was in." "The Third Legion of." "OK." "Let's get the blood flowing first." "Shake it down now, girls." "Yeah." "First up, we're gonna learn the nose-slam." "This little beauty saved my arse many times at the Battle of Philippi." "OK." "Volunteer time." "One of the fellas, maybe?" "Yes, please." "The big man with the muscles." "Come on." "Er, yep." "Sure thing." "The rest of you, buddy up." "So if Muscles here is this attacker..." "And let's pretend he's a lot bigger, make it realistic." "More banter, Muscles." "Imagine he comes in with a right-hand jab." "Yes please, big man." "Left arm parry, right hand flat, crunching into the nose." "Keep practising and it will become muscle memory." "Get it into your muscles." "Right, Muscles?" "OK." "Once again, please." "Bit faster." "Parry." "Nose-slap." "Left arm round the back of the neck into a chokehold." "From here, we can break the neck or rapid punch the bonce." "Where would you rather, muscle man?" "Neither, please." "I dunno why you're blubbing, Muscles." "I'm not even doing it properly." "This shouldn't even be hurting." "Salve, Grumio." "All right, landlord?" "All right, Davus?" "Your rent's overdue." "I know." "We got mugged by some scumbag last night." "Should've taken advantage of our crimewave protection deal." "What's the deal?" "For a mere 30 denarii, Davus here will offer you protection from all those violent thugs out there." "Including, of course, himself." "Wicked." "Bang it on the rent, eh?" "Hi, Grumie." "Agatha." "What are you doing here?" "Special delivery." "I made you a cake." "Oh, yeah." "I should try some of that." "You know, check it's not poisoned." "I've got a protection deal." "It's a strawberry and walnut sponge with a honey glaze." "Mmm." "I should check it too, actually." "I'll take my chances, thanks." "Well, I hope you like it." "Maybe you're right." "It's not really for us." "Are you kidding?" "I loved it." "We're going to get so fit." "Parry." "Nose-slam." "Stay down." "There are other ways to get fit." "We could learn Persian folk dancing, for example." "Because the big man picked on you?" "What?" "That?" "That was just banter." "He was messing around." "When you were squealing like a pig in a box, that was banter, was it?" "Yeah." "Pretty niche banter, admittedly, but you know." "Sorry." "Where are you going?" "Home." "I'm kind of pooped after that." "OK." "Want me to escort you?" "Cos of the crime wave and stuff." "Yeah, right." "She's never gonna mate with me again." "You shouldn't have pitted yourself against the alpha male." "You pitted me against the alpha male." "The class was your idea." "I'll be better off taking romantic advice from Grumio." "Any time you like, brother." "This baker must be really into you, judging by the cake." "Why?" "Cos it's strawberry?" "Cos it's heart-shaped, you div." "Oh, yeah." "I hadn't spotted that." "Why do all confident men feel the need to dominate me?" "It's Mr Tappo's PE class all over again." "You need to fight back." "Show Hector you're not to be trifled with." "But I am." "Clearly I am to be trifled with." "So fight dirty." "Bop him in his balls." "Chuck sand in his eyes." "Or I could just hide behind the fat kids, like I did in PE." "Proper moist." "Honestly, there's nothing up there." "Well, you can never be too careful." "From my point of view, you really can." "Ah." "And..." "OK." "You are clean." "Right." "I don't feel it." "Er, yes." "You, come forward." "Thank you." "And spread 'em." "Copier, water boy, you can go through." "Right." "Thank you." "Oh, yeah." "I see." "It's outrageous." "Water man." "You're clearly profiling us and only frisking the hot ones." "How dare you." "My selection process is entirely random." "I demand to get searched right now, or I'll file for discrimination." "OK." "Come on, then." "Spread 'em." "It was horrible." "I feel brutalised." "It was just a slightly gropey pat down." "She encircled my member." "She's a very frisky frisker." "What do you expect?" "We could sue for this." "Touching a staff member's member is sexual assault." "I know someone who got a payout of 3,000 denarii after something like this." "Three grand?" "Yeah." "Did she touch your member?" "Mate, she was all over my staff member." "And my balls." "In fact, now that I think about it," "I'm starting to feel pretty traumatised." "You see?" "Like I've received about three grand's worth of sexual assault." "Would you like to lick the bowl?" "Yes, please." "What about the spoon?" "I'll lick the lot, mate." "Oh." "It's like that, is it?" "Come on, then." "I'll eat you alive." "Things going well with Agatha, then?" "It's delicious." "Not quite what I asked." "Course they are, it's a match made in heaven." "She's happy baking." "I'm happy eating." "Right." "And I don't want to put a downer on what is clearly true love, but you don't think she might be a feeder, do you?" "Oh, shit." "Never thought of that." "Well, she does feed me, so." "But as in, she likes turning her boyfriends into big, cakey fatties." "Well, let's hope so, eh?" "Keep slamming those noses and it will become instinctive." "Parry." "Nose-slam." "OK, volunteer time." "I need someone to take me on." "Yes, please." "Muscles." "No thanks, Hector." "What?" "Scared you'll hurt me, are you?" "No." "Just wanna give someone else a go." "I'll do it, Hector." "Thanks." "Thank you." "Rescued by his girlfriend." "What a gentleman." "All right." "Step forward then, please, my darling." "Today we're gonna do some sexual assault roleplays." "If you turn around, I'm gonna try and goose you, and you're gonna beat me off." "Actually, I will do it." "It's OK." "Changed my mind." "He's not actually going to goose me." "I know." "It's just I'm happy to do it." "And he did ask for me, so." "All right." "What's good for the goose is good for the gander." "Right." "So here's the deal." "I'm coming in for a goosing." "What do you do?" "Run away?" "Run away!" "What is this?" "A wild goose chase?" "No." "You deploy the chicken thrust." "Use those whopping great arms of yours." "I'll demonstrate." "Try and goose me." "Chicken thrust!" "Bam, bam, bam, bam!" "Oh, shit!" "Or version two." "Come at me again, please, Muscles." "In your own time, big dog." "OK." "And I've neutralised him." "Now he's on the deck, we can pin him down." "And if there's gas in the tank... ..guff on the face." "We used this all the time in the Third Legion." "That guy should not be allowed to teach." "He's an aggressive arsehole with an aggressive arsehole." "As if they teach farting in the army." "I don't believe a word he says." "The guy's full of shit." "Certainly smelled like it." "I do wish I could guff on command, though." "That is well impressive." "Not really." "I can do that." "The trick is not following through." "OK." "Wicked." "Delphine could barely watch." "She's gonna dump me before I can get the stench out of my hair." "That's what you get for joining a fitness class." "Should've stayed here with me and the cakes." "Do you think you might have a bit of a cake problem?" "No." "I can stop when I want to." "Go on, then." "I don't want to." "You are a bit of a flubster around the face." "That's muscle from all the chewing." "I did it!" "Sweet." "Oh, yeah." "I followed through." "Mini cupcake?" "Give me a sec, I've just put one in." "They're only mini." "You're meant to eat two at a time." "Max, is that you?" "Agatha!" "Wow." "Good to see you!" "I didn't know you were in Rome." "Yeah." "Doing private security now, ain't I?" "Thank fuck for this crime wave." "You know what I mean?" "All right, mate?" "All right?" "This is Grumio, my new boyfriend." "Yeah, I can tell." "His mouth's full of cake." "I've got a whole box if you want one." "Nah, you're all right." "I should be getting back to work." "OK." "Well, good to see you, Max." "Yeah." "You too." "Good luck, fella." "He an ex of yours, was he?" "Years back, yeah." "He looks awful now he's lost all that weight." "This one's lemon drizzle." "What's this?" "What in Hades do you call this?" ""Sexual assault"?" "That's right." "You wouldn't know sexual assault if it bent you over and bit you on the bum." "Which, for the record, I did not do." "Sorry." "Who is that?" "It's my lawyer." "Ah." "He's here to swat away pesky little parasites like you." "Well, we both found your frisking style very traumatic, actually." "Oh, what rot." "You violated us and you know it." "And you were asking for it." "No, he was." "He literally asked me to do it." "Let's just see what the tribunal has to say about it, shall we?" "Oh, bring it on." "Many have tried to pin me for sexual assault, and every time I've wriggled free." "Because I am feared around these parts, and my word goes a very long way." "And because I didn't do it...also." "She was shaking in her shoes, man." "We've as good as won it." "And then we can get a new flat, some new threads, a trolley to wheel around the muffin man here." "I'm on a break from cake, as it goes." "What's that in your hand, then?" "Carrot cake." "It's basically salad." "That's pretty much the definition of having your cake and eating it." "Agatha says it's good for me." "Because she wants you to be as big as a big house." "You don't think there's anything weird about this, G-Man?" "I suppose." "I did bump into one of her ex-boyfriends earlier." "And?" "And there were a lot of him." "And apparently when they were going out, there were a lot more." "It's probably nothing, though, eh?" "You've gotta get away from her." "She's a menace." "What did we tell you?" "She'll keep stuffing you with cakes till you can't move or get out of bed." "Keep talking." "No, Grumio." "You don't want this." "You'll be utterly helpless." "She'll do everything for you." "While you lay there, eating." "Still waiting for the bad news." "You'll have to wash with a wet rag." "Fine." "Pee in a pot by the bed." "I do that anyway." "You'll be dead by the time you're 40." "Oh." "There's always a catch." "Listen, I know it's tough, but you gotta say no to her cakes." "Go cold turkey before it ruins you." "Believe it or not, I was once the fittest guy in my platoon." "I had a six-pack and everything." "You were a solider?" "Commanding centurion in the Third Legion." "Third Legion." "Don't suppose you ever served with someone called Hector by any chance?" "Yeah I did, actually." "Maybe he is a war hero." "Hero?" "Are you pulling my plonker?" "Er, no." "Not deliberately." "He's a total coward." "He nearly got us all killed in Philippi." "Came out of formation and let the bloody enemy in while he crawled off under his shield, the prick." "And I'd say that right to his shit face if I ever got the chance." "Huh." "Interesting." "And then she worked her way up my rear thigh." "Checking for concealed weapons, yes." "Up to the bum zone and anus area, giving me a firm probe and then a thumb up." "Sorry." "Do you mean she gave you the thumbs-up?" "Or " "No." "I mean she placed her thumb...up." "Oh, for Jove's sake." "I'm not a trained security guard." "If the company refused to hire people, then I have to take things into my own hands." "Can you show us on the dolly where she touched you?" "Yes." "Right." "OK." "We now have Stylax Eurysaces to testify." "All right?" "In your own time, Stylax, tell us what happened, please." "Flavia started patting me down on my arms, legs, nipples and stuff." "Yes." "Rightly so." "Then she began to work the frontal groin." "Poking it about a bit." "Poking it how?" "Like you might if you were checking a mango to see if it's ripe." "A mango?" "Hardly." "Can you show us on the dolly?" "Oh, yeah." "Oh, not really." "The goolies are a bit small on this one." "They were too small for me as well." "For the record." "OK." "Do we have a life-size model anywhere?" "Yes." "I do." "I confiscated that." "It's not mine." "Oh, OK." "It was a bit like this." "Because I thought it was a weapon." "OK." "I think we all need a bit of a break after that." "Let's pick it up again tomorrow, please, people." "Oh." "Boys, boys." "Quick word before you go." "OK." "How much?" "How much for what?" "To settle this right now." "How much?" "It's not about money, as a matter of fact." "It's about justice." "I'll give you 500 each." "Oh, yeah." "OK, I'll do that." "What?" "No!" "We're gonna get three grand." "We're not taking 500 now." "You're just scared you're gonna lose." "No." "That is a good offer." "Well, your luck's run out this time." "Everyone's finally gonna know that you're a sneaky old sleaze." "What?" "Old!" "?" "Parry!" "Nose-slap!" "Well, now." "This changes things." "Apparently, the nose-slap pretty much cancels out the groin grope, so we've called it quits." "You nose-slammed Flavia?" "Bloody hell." "It was muscle memory, man." "These things remember way more than my head does." "Hi, guys." "Oh, hey." "Sex attack!" "Roman arm-twister!" "Ah, no!" "Not a sex attack." "You're my girlfriend." "That's one of Hector's." "Good, right?" "Yeah." "Brilliant." "Isn't Hector just great?" "What a great guy." "OK." "Afternoon, ladies." "Today, we're gonna learn about frontal attacks." "When predators go for the torso." "And when I say torso, I do mean tits." "Volunteer time." "Muscles, you're a tit." "Up you come." "Sure thing, Hector." "Now try and grab my nawks and I'll demonstrate the Spartan strike." "Sure." "So this is another military move?" "Oh, yeah." "Used this all the time." "Took out shitloads of enemy scum at Philippi with this baby." "Wow." "Amazing." "Cos I actually met someone who fought with you at Philippi just yesterday." "What?" "Really?" "Yeah." "I told him what you said and he had, well, a couple of quibbles." "Well, I may not remember everything perfectly but" " Well, let's ask him." "Maximus?" "Oh, shit." "OK " "You're not a war hero, you lying arsehole." "You're a dirty coward." "Dirty, dirty, coward." "You make me sick." "Breaking rank like a scared little bitch while the rest of us took the flak." "You should've killed yourself after that." "OK." "That's a bit much." "You're a disgrace to the uniform and a traitor to Rome." "While the arrows rained upon us." "While our brothers lay dying facedown in the dirt, you crawled off under your shield like a fucking turtle!" "You deserted us, Hector." "You left us." "And we will never, ever forgive you for what you did!" "OK." "I think he got the message." "What the fuck, Marcus?" "Well, he was a fraud." "What were you trying to do?" "Well...yeah." "Basically this." "She still won't mate with you?" "But you completely destroyed the alpha male." "Sort of." "I sub-contracted out his destruction to another, much angrier alpha male." "Ah." "I guess it's not as sexy." "Apparently I trigged some sort of post-traumatic episode and now he won't get out of bed." "Should probably go and apologise." "Where have you been, Grumie?" "I've not seen you at the stall for days." "Oh, you know me." "Busy, busy." "I made you another cake." "It's a banana, fudge, cherry, berry, custard cake." "With frosted vanilla icing and raisins on top." "No." "You're all right." "You don't want it?" "No, thanks." "I'm not into your cakes anymore." "They're a bit...much." "I'm on the cold turkey now." "I see." "So that's that, then?" "Yes." "That is very much that." "Well done, G-Man." "I didn't think you had it in you." "That's the hardest thing I've done in my whole life." "So what's she gonna do with that?" "It's very sweet of you, Marcus." "Well, I just wanted to say sorry." "And I figured he's a deserter, so he must like dessert." "Too soon?" "A bit but thanks for the cake." "Well, Agatha here made it." "You're an amazing baker, darling." "I've been on bloody health foods for eight years." "This is unbelievable." "Plenty more where that came from."

Molecular Interaction of Anti-Diabetic Drugs With Acetylcholinesterase and Sodium Glucose Co-Transporter 2. Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) and Alzheimer's disease (AD) are the two disorders which are known to share pertinent pathological and therapeutic links. Sodium glucose co-transporter-2 (SGLT2) and Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) are established inhibition targets for T2DM and AD treatments, respectively. Reports suggest that anti-diabetic drugs could be used for AD treatment also. The present study used molecular docking by Autodock4.2 using our "Click-By-Click"-protocol, Ligplot1.4.3 and "change in accessible surface area (ΔASA)-calculations" to investigate the binding of two investigational anti-diabetic drugs, Ertugliflozin and Sotagliflozin to an established target (SGLT2) and a research target (human brain AChE). Sotagliflozin appeared more promising for SGLT2 as well as AChE-inhibition with reference to ΔG and Ki values in comparison to Ertugliflozin. The ΔG and Ki values for "Sotagliflozin:AChE-binding" were -7.16 kcal/mol and 5.6 μM, respectively while the same were found to be -8.47 kcal/mol and 0.62 μM, respectively for its interaction with SGLT2. Furthermore, "Sotagliflozin:SGLT2-interaction" was subjected to (un)binding simulation analyses by "Molecular-Motion-Algorithms." This information is significant as the exact binding mode, interacting amino acid residues and simulation results for the said interaction have not been described yet. Also no X-ray crystal is available for the same. Finally, the results described herein indicate that Sotagliflozin could have an edge over Ertugliflozin for treatment of Type 2 diabetes. Future design of drugs based on Sotagliflozin scaffolds for treatment of Type 2 and/or Type 3 diabetes are highly recommended. As these drugs are still in late phases of clinical trials, the results described herein appear timely. J. Cell. Biochem. 118: 3855-3865, 2017. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

QUÉBEC - L'unité du Parti québécois (PQ) est en péril si le ton des échanges entre les candidats ne change pas, selon le député Jean-François Lisée. Lui-même candidat à la direction du PQ, M. Lisée n'apprécie guère le ton utilisé par ses adversaires Alexandre Cloutier et Martine Ouellet à son égard. Il estime qu'ils lui ont tous deux attribué des épithètes peu flatteuses et croit le moment venu de faire un rappel à l'ordre. En entrevue avec La Presse canadienne, mardi, le député péquiste de Rosemont s'est dit inquiet de la tournure prise par la course, alors que les débats n'ont pas encore eu lieu et qu'il reste près de deux mois avant le vote. Ce genre d'attitude pourrait même remettre en question, selon lui, le nécessaire ralliement des équipes perdantes autour du nouveau chef, qui sera élu le 7 octobre. "Une condition de l'unité, c'est la tonalité", tranche le candidat. Il leur demande donc d'adopter un ton plus respectueux envers leurs rivaux, à la fois pour le bien du parti et pour assurer la cohésion des troupes, au lendemain de l'élection du successeur de Pierre Karl Péladeau. Car le ton adopté par les candidats entre eux durant la course sera une condition susceptible de favoriser ou non le ralliement des perdants au vainqueur, le soir de l'élection, a-t-il fait valoir. Lui-même s'engage à se rallier au gagnant et à sa démarche, quoi qu'il arrive. Sans parler d'insultes ou d'injures, il reproche à Alexandre Cloutier et à Martine Ouellet d'avoir utilisé des "termes assez durs" à son égard. M. Cloutier l'aurait traité "d'hypocrite et d'incohérent" et aurait qualifié sa stratégie référendaire de "totalement irresponsable", tandis que Mme Ouellet aurait jugé que tous les candidats, sauf elle, avaient "une stratégie de perdant". "Le 7 octobre au soir, un d'entre nous va être chef et les autres devront se rallier à cette personne-là. Donc, il faut faire attention aux mots qu'on utilise, mesurer ses propos", a soutenu M. Lisée, jugeant "contreproductif" le ton employé par ses deux rivaux. Il y a "un voyant jaune qui s'allume", dit-il, rappelant le "devoir de solidarité" des perdants envers le gagnant le soir du scrutin. Il estime que les deux autres candidats, Véronique Hivon et Paul Saint-Pierre Plamondon, ont eu un comportement "impeccable", évitant tout dérapage verbal de ce type. Le mode de scrutin préférentiel qui a été privilégié pour élire le futur chef du PQ pourrait l'avantager, croit M. Lisée, qui ne serait pas étonné de voir le deuxième choix des militants être couronné chef le 7 octobre. En juin, un sondage Léger donnait la deuxième place à M. Lisée dans les intentions de vote des péquistes, quand même loin derrière Alexandre Cloutier. "On est tous conscients de l'importance des deuxièmes choix", dit-il. Le mode de scrutin prévoit que les militants pourront inscrire par ordre de préférence leur premier, deuxième et troisième choix de candidat sur le bulletin de vote. Si aucun candidat n'obtient plus de 50 pour cent des votes au premier tour, le deuxième choix des électeurs pourrait alors être avantagé. "Je rencontre des gens qui me disent: je suis pour Martine, je suis pour Alexandre, Paul ou Véronique. Et je dis, j'espère au moins que je suis ton deuxième choix. Et très, très souvent, ils disent oui. Et des fois ils disent: mon deuxième choix, mais peut-être mon premier." Voir aussi:

A Republican lawmaker in Georgia is planning to unveil a bill next week to legalize cannabidiol, a non-psychoactive component of the marijuana plant, for medical purposes. “I’m an unlikely champion for this cause. I’ve never done drugs. Never smoked marijuana in my life,” state Rep. Allen Peake told The Huffington Post. “But I had a visit with Haleigh Cox, the daughter of a constituent of mine. The result of seeing the pain and suffering she goes through, having 100 seizures a day, and seeing a potential remedy through cannabidiol treatment, I was compelled to move to action.” “I just know if Haleigh was my daughter or my grandchild, I would be moving heaven and earth to make sure [cannabidiol] was available. That’s how we need to look at it. This is somebody’s child,” he said. “I’m going to use every ounce of political influence I have [to pass this bill.]” Georgia Rep. Micah Gravley, also a Republican, told The Post that he, too, supports the legalization of medical marijuana treatments and plans to co-sponsor the bill. “I am not in favor of opening up the discussion about recreational use of marijuana in Georgia, but if some components and derivatives of this plant can help to improve the quality of life or even save the life of a child, I believe the right thing to do as lawmakers is to move forward with granting parents and children access to beneficial treatment,” he said.
